When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
Siren's Song

Is there a real-time, online, SOS help channel, I wonder.
Internet is so much part of our lives now, together with text messages and so on, the next thing one can expect would be "Internet killed the telephone (star?)".
Words vis-a-vis voice.
I was nibbling on bits of my banana muffin, and for some reason, I just suddenly considered the idea of counselling people in some mIRC channel.
Cybernetic freaks. =)
Do you, like me, pour out your sorrows in text rather than talk about problems through the phone?
Do you feel more comfortable maintaining a conversation with a faceless being, his or her expression, intonations and inflections in words up to your own imagination, rather than cry on someone's shoulders that are physically there with you?
Communication has evolved. And if words can make someone feel better, why not put it to good use? =)
