Vulnerable to technology and communications

Admit it, we all are. For the fact we know that we can just pickup a telephone, dial a few numbers, and there - we're able to speak to the ones we need. We're able to just click a link or a button and there, we're able to speak to those through the internet. It's right there before us all the time. But when something strikes, something hits, something way beyond our control happens, we're left with fear. I know someone who has had their family stuck in Christchurch, and were not able to contact them. Although there's this thing called the internet, and everything else to do with communication, when it's not available, what more can we do? Not that I'm a major fan in religion, but wouldn't you think that's it's like a wake up call for us all? That we just don't seem to appreciate what we've got. And I guess I could stand by that. Looking at the amazing views of England from the top of cathedrals, to travelling through the country via national rail, to just about anything has taught me well a lot about appreciation. So let's not take anything for granted.
