I remember the time when my parents are still on LDR. There were no available form of social media or messenger for fast communication. There was only the snail mail. My Mama would write to Papa several pages of stories about our family (and kinda forced me and my Ate to do the same)  He would send voice tapes and letters in exchange.

They would seldom make phone calls because it was too expensive...but they still made a budget for that as much as they can. This is why we were very thankful for yahoo messenger (then later to skype) no matter how slow the dial-up was. It was still better and faster than the mail. Then faster net came and life became much more convenient. (My youngest sister is so lucky. )

But I noticed something. We live in a day when communication is so easy yet we fail to communicate in truth. Because communication lines became so common, most people nowadays take it for granted.

Some of us take days, weeks, months, even years not talking to our loved ones. We are saying that it is hard to maintain communication, but is that really true?

We are saying that we are depressed and alone, but isn't it just an invisible prison we put ourselves into when we knew full well that the key is just within reach? All we needed to do is to stretch our arms and hands out.

In this day when technology is so advance, instead of letting it distract us from what really matters, may we use it to our advantage in maintaining our relationships with our loved ones.

If we really love them, we will make time for them. We will never let that thread that connects us come to an end. You know why?

Because true love never fails.
