The Kindness of Sharing Experiences

"In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter and sharing of pleasures.  For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed."
~ Khalil Gibran

For me, one of the best things about technology -- and specifically the ability to send photos and messages immediately through our mobile phones -- is that it enables us to share experiences with friends and family.  I love sending and receiving photos from friends as it enables us to get a sense of what the other is doing in a very vivid way.  On the same evening that I shared photos of my family members dressed up in costume for a party, a friend shared a cute comment that her son had made and a former colleague wrote to me about his experiences presenting at a conference in Africa.  I truly appreciate my friends' sharing their lives with me.
