Electronic connection is possible

It does not have to be true that the electronic conversation is contact without connection. Two scenarios: My parents die within 10 minutes of each other of separate heart attacks. In the raw moments of it all, I post on a computer forum of all places. I get back a flow of emotions and support over the wires that is palpable. The second is 9-11: the stories, ponderings and reflections we share allow people to touch each other’s pulse. I feel it keenly. So do many others. It takes self disclosure and the time to hear the persons in the other parts of the conversation. It is rare. It is possible.
