“Connections and communications support, shape, and limit us. Today, our minds sort through masses of information presented by media, computers, phones, and other technological devices. By disconnecting from these devices, we find quiet time to ponder who we are and what we want to do—not just what others want us to be or do. Human and technological connections in different forms wrap around and engulf us day after day. We need to maintain those connections and receive those messages that are important for our well-being and growth. However, the challenge is to make choices and to disengage from people and devices that are non-essential and harmful.” - Theodosia A.G. Tamborlane
