A world that cannot sleep, that cannot take time away from the madding crowd, is one that has lost touch with reality. When our only solace is to withdraw into a virtual space where neither flowers nor love ever bloom, we have surely forgotten what it is to be human. The virtual life has robbed us of our emotions, compassion and a sense that we belong to something greater than ourselves.
