Social media is the modern-day assembly line. But also turns name tags into digital codes.
Social media is the portal for efficient communication. And the barrier for substantial relationship.
Jumping over time zones and continental oceans, social media is a no-frills traveler. He breaks through the degrees of separation. And connects the coffee grower in Columbia with the merchant in Vienna. The Australian is able to receive instantaneous confirmation on a flight booked to the Himalayas. No jet pack or time capsule is able to keep up with his aptitude. Social media continues to strengthen his muscles. Flexing a mounting force throughout the world.
Social media can be an effective way of spreading good news. Or bombard unsuspecting victims with promises of enhanced pleasure and alternative medical cures. To his detriment, social media does not discriminate values in marketing. And his understanding of healthy boundaries is duly suspect.
Social media exposes veiled emotions and sentiments that may otherwise stay tucked away. Opening up hidden wounds that infect the soul. His invitation promotes the opening of doors. Yet, social media only generates the initial crack. Which may ultimately keep relational capacity in separate rooms.
Social media has thwarted verbal conversation. And threatens to rival flesh-to-flesh interaction. He is able to crowd-source information and gather unimaginable data. But will never be able to substitute for a hug in time of need. Or the stimulation of a first kiss. Or sustain a relationship in the face of conflict and adversity.
Social media surges off the starting block. But remains unfamiliar with the finish line. Amen.
