Our limitless technology is transforming us into nomadic, rootless people. How easy is it for any of us, instead of being present with a friend or a spouse, to tune out by getting lost in our isolating screens? How easy is it for us as parents to give our kids an iPad to drug them into silence for a bit? It’s so easy to tune our world out, we often do it without even thinking. We look to pass the time rather than redeem it.
