“Friends”

Today I logged into Facebook after being away for about a month. After scanning through a few wall posts, pictures and events, I realized how many significant life events I have missed in my “friends” lives.  And I felt bad about missing so much.

But should a Facebook update be the only way I learn about what is going on with my “friends”?  I think not. Direct communication has been replaced with a passive observance of a status or a like or a tag.

It’s just sad that some of our “friendships” have been reduced to this.
