I'm Wired!

Today's good thing is the Internet. I'm grateful for the Internet because it allows me to be connected with a lot of nice people that I might not be in touch with otherwise.

Even though I work in virtual isolation, I contact one of my co-workers daily and check in with her. When I post on Facebook, people respond. There's a forum where WLS participants post victories, ask questions, and generally encourage each other. This morning I chatted with a friend who lives 100 miles away whom I haven't seen in person in over a year -- but I still feel close to her.

While there is some truth to the argument that technology makes society more impersonal, for me the Internet is all about connections.
