 How
sweet was this?  Looking at the tables full of sailors eating,
chatting and smiling, I realized that I was one of those rarest of

with profound loneliness that is deliberately hidden behind the
charade of cyber connectivity, I was blessed with genuine
community.

 These
were not Facebook friends, they were face-to-face friends.  We were
not communicating via screens and pixels.  We were interacting with
our voices, our glances, our laughter.
