Such a great post! I've been rethinking my approach to socialization recently and in the end nothing beats just spending time with people in person (friends, colleagues at work, people in clubs and hobbies). I think technology can be a great way to connect with others but the way it's built right now just gamifies shallow interactions (likes, views, followers). I miss the time when I used MySpace and Facebook to connect with friends and we had no influencers on there at all :).

This is fabulous! One of the reasons why I love being a hospital doctor is the daily opportunity to be around real people, solving real problems in this ever-simulated world. Don’t get me wrong, this has its challenges too, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.
