Are we better, connected?

I own two mobile phones, I have two different phone numbers and a spare sim card for my most used one. I have an Apple iPod that I use for music and entertainment on the go, a tablet laptop for most of my work and another computer at home. Wherever I go, I can reach every single bit of information I might need. GPS coordinates? No problem. Last weeks meeting reports? Yep. Updated calendar info for the whole company? I can do that to.

Wherever I go, I’m connected. Facebook. Twitter. Several blogs. Hotmail. Gmail. Google maps and WIKIPEDIA. I can connect and access them with the flick of my thumb, a status update on one is reflected on all the others without me doing anything, everything is linked to everything else and information floats freely between services and platforms. A true child of the age of information revolution, I think differently about what I share and tell others than my parents, I lie open my life to a potential of users that is ever growing. If I’m  not careful I will risk others stealing my very identity with the intent to misuse the information obtained.

I’m willing to take the risk. I move borders. I change people. I can alter the course of a small group. I can interest the local media. I am part of the whole. We are. We change the world. We alter the course of billions. We attract interest of all the media. We are the people of the world, and we are working, communicating and living… together. As one single world, one single mechanism, we have begun the shift that will forever change the borders, the dividers and the mental state of nations. We have begun the change that will change democracy forever.

I’m willing to risk it. The benefit is too good to miss.

We’re better. Connected.

Wind.

You are not here tonight. We are separated by the physical world, by chance and by the real life. We are together still though. In thoughts and in feelings. And in feelings, there are actions. And in actions, there is destiny. Dangerous word destiny is, the brother of death eventually. I however, fear not the future anymore, because I have you.

I have flown. I have felt and I have seen. The world is mine to hold tonight. I know how it ends. Perfect moments in the sun. The golden rays over you hair, a light breeze that rustles it. The clear stary sky at night, thousands of millions of stars looking down on us, as we two, lovers, hold hands and walk into whatever awaits us. I know how it ends. Because I have you. My one, my last, my love.

Yours.
