We live in a time of gadgets and the information superhighway. In my travels and at work I see every walk of person texting and talking on cellphones that more resemble computers than phones. The mobile web is starting to catch up with the PC and through it all we are spending less time away from electronics. Remember when people said cell phones might cause cancer? Did that ever get proven? I’m not sure exactly but we forgot about just like we forget to shop at place that won’t accept credit card payment. Is this good? Is this bad? Is this neutral?
Perhaps we need to challenge ourselves with a day or several hours of electronic fasting. Spending some time at the park or in nature would be good for us. Getting away from all the electronic neon and “wireless” vibes of our life could produce some innovative thinking. What do you think of the idea of electronic fasting? Maybe I’ll try it tomorrow and see what happens.
