If you’ve actually been diagnosed with ADD, then fine, I can sympathize. But otherwise I regard the sudden proliferation of ADD as symptomatic of people’s lack of boundaries in their lives and an excuse to behave inconsiderately. Our technology has given us faster communication, but not *better* communication. When we say we’re getting “more” done, it’s measured in volume and not quality. We don’t get *more* done faster, we’re just faster. So now we can have more IMs, more erratic emails, more abbreviated cell phone conversations, and only meet face to face to seal the deal because actual connection and conversation should be savored like a rare wine and only opened for very special occasions. But let’s not acknowledge that we’re so busy being busy that we can’t be bothered to communicate; let’s just say we’re ADD.
how you write just gets me all excited sometimes!
