RE: Three Reasons Why “Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder”
Absence truly does let the heart grow founder. Though technology has made it so easy to stay in touch it also have taken away from this absence that gives us the opportunity to truly appreciate people and even things when we do not have them readily available.
Looks like you have a lovely family and wonderful marriage, good stuff man!
Interesting point. The study I referenced actually mentioned technology as a contributor to greater emotional intimacy in long distance relationships. The ease of communication let's people stay in touch but the limitations of distance require the deeper emotional connection for the relationship to grow. But that said, you're probably onto something as the old school letter writing that was the mode of long distance communication back in the day would also have its benefits.
