A Smaller World

Though the world  is  large and we may
live thousands of miles  apart even in
the same  country technology makes it 
seem smaller.

I live on the west  coast and New York 
is more then five hours to fly too. The 
cites along the east coast  you can go to 
most within five hours driving.

I can drive to Portland  Oregon in two
hours and forty minutes however 
Spokane on the east side of Washington 
takes almost five hours from my place 
to drive. The same goes for Eugene 
Oregon. So I  could  be  in California 
in one day driving.

We can video chat or a zoom  meeting 
within the world  for it to seem smaller.
On Tuesday  at the gym I said hello to
someone who is from Japan and another
one from Sweden. I  had a short chat
with a couple  I believe from Eastern 
Europe and a longer one with a young
woman from Brazil. I went to Starbucks 
after and there a couple young men
talking and I  am  sure  they were speaking 
Russian.  Not a big surprise  since we do
have a good population of Russians in 
the area though not in my town. 

This does make the world feel smaller 
doesn't  it. Gives us even for a purpose 
to share with one another. To learn 
different  cultures. The young woman 
from Brazil says her town there are
those speak German  as well as 
Portuguese. Many Germans have
migrated  there. I  learned something 
new for sure.

May you have a wonderful day and be
blessed with  who you meet.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️
