things that matter

Modern technology has made the world feel both incredibly small and overwhelmingly large at the same time. With a few taps, you can see photos from cities you’ve never visited, or read conversations between people you’ll never meet. Information travels faster than emotions sometimes, making it easy to feel connected yet strangely distant. We tell ourselves we’re updated, informed, aware—but often the things that matter most are the ones happening right in front of us, not on a glowing screen. It’s a strange balance between wanting to stay plugged into everything and wanting to step away from it all. The hardest part is choosing when to disconnect long enough to remember the difference between constant noise and genuine experience.
