Everywhere you look these days, people have their heads down—“talking” with others by typing on their devices. This is the illusion of companionship, writes Sherry Turkle, psychologist and professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in The New York Times article “The Flight From Conversation.” She recommends that people “make room” for conversation. “…We need to remember—in between texts and e-mails and Facebook posts—to listen to one another, even to the boring bits, because it is often in unedited moments, moments in which we hesitate and stutter and go silent, that we reveal ourselves to one another.” Go start a conversation—a real one.
