Subject: [RecipesAndMore] who's behind the keyboard?
Hi there,
i got this message from a friend and it touched me and made me think,
hope it has the same affect on everyone else on here.
Do you remember sitting in a chat room, watching people chat, or even
chatting yourself? Do you remember receiving so many forwards that your
mailbox was ready to explode? How about receiving an e-mail from someone
just searching for a friend. Did you wonder who these people might be that
are behind the keyboard?
Online we meet new people from all around the world. Some we chat with
just
once and then we go on. Others we chat with time and time again, and a
friendship is made. Others become our e-mail buddies, and we look forward
to
their e-mails each day, but have you ever really wondered who was really
behind the keyboard?
So often we meet a friend in chat we stay up all night chatting, sometimes
we laugh so hard we cannot type, other times we cry and our keyboards are
stained from tears. We chat about our lives and help solve each others'
problems, we lend a shoulder if we can. Did you ever think to yourself,
who
is really behind that keyboard?
Did you ever chat with someone that promised you the world and that your
friendship will be forever, and then they are gone? Do you forget about
them
and move on, or do you wonder "who was that person really, that was behind
the keyboard?
Have you ever hid behind your keyboard, pretending to be something you are
not, just to boost your ego? As you sat there and typed have you ever
lied,
thinking "who cares, the person behind the keyboard, it is only a fake
person?" Did you ever hurt someone thinking "it's only a game"?
Well, behind each and every keyboard are very real people, some might be
heartless cold people, not caring who they hurt, but then there are people
that are caring, loyal, honest and all kinds of people hoping for some
companionship online.
Behind the keyboard can be someone who is seriously depressed and their
only
hope is to make a friend, maybe an aging person who once had a family, but
now they live too far apart to see one another, perhaps there is someone
that cannot walk anymore or a person so ill they are in the house forever.
As we enter the world of the internet we should remember, it is a very
real
world and behind each and every keyboard is a person who has a heart. No
one
has a life that is pain free, so as we go online whether in chat or just
e-mailing, we must remember to treat each person the way the we want to be
treated, to respect each others' feelings, and to offer friendship,
because
the truth is we really do not know who is behind the keyboard or what kind
of hurt someone may be feeling. To be the best to others that you can be
should be the "key" to a good, honest life.
Kay
