Under or Over Communication?

In this technologically infused world with such new age tech savvys, I sometimes find it amusing how comfortable we as a race are, in communicating with over 500 strangers about our daily chores and musings. No, I'm serious. I find it thoroughly amusing when I hear people these days talk about the reasons of some of their problems. "No communication", they say. But I refuse to believe this. In this world where everyone is seemingly hooked onto communication in its diverse forms and mediums, why do we find it so hard to get across something to ourselves or sometimes, the ones we love the most? It's like we're lost in the flow of thoughts that follow when you see the 'events' happening in other people's lives, how do we expect our minds to actually render help in building our own? So many people, so many events, so many thoughts. But at the end of the day, how many of us check the quality of these thoughts? Or check how many of them were actually productive for our own lives? Since when did we start giving other people so much significance, that we have actually forgotten own very own self?!

I know for sure that one of the reasons among the hundreds other, is facebook. Why do we feel such an intense need to show the world how much fun we're having, or how happy we are? I dunno. Is it because we know that we're not that happy? Or just that we're plain happy and want to show the world that? Well, some questions will remain questions.
