Sometimes walking on the street with my dogs I come across people who are not seeing anything but their cell phone in their hands. I find that a pity because they don't see a smile on a face or friendly greeting, they just keep on staring and tickling their little instrument. One time I tried to see what happened if I didn't step aside to not run into them but just kept on walking. One of the reactions was "surprise", another scolded me with a particular name and another one did as if we didn't bump into each other.
Normally I will not judge others but I must say with these cell phones, Iphones etc... it gives me the chills. Where is the real social contact I wonder ? But hey, I'm just reflecting another topic of today.
