Last Seen

by J.T. Ellison

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. —Author Unknown

“We are bombarded by sensations. Overwhelmed by them, I would say. The world we find ourselves in now, with computers and phones and the internet, all the dings and bells, it is not a natural state. The way we stare at screens is not something our primordial brains can handle. Oh, we convince ourselves otherwise, let children watch dancing bears and tell ourselves they are being entertained, but the truth of the matter is we are ruining them. Ruined children grow into ruinous adults. Technology has seen to that.”
