Give me the ol’ time human intimacy

We live in a generation where tiny cellphones have taken the place of intimate yet meaningful conversations or tiny 'getting to know you' chit-chats. Often when we get into greetings on the phone, to our inquiries of

"Hey, what's up?" We want to hear the other say nothing else but "Everything's good. I'm doing well." When in reality though, this may not be their true state of being.

I'm not implying that this technology is bad, surely, yes in our time, it's brought us some good things but I think we can all agree it has also unfortunately taken some aspects of our precious and critical human communication skills away.
