Unplugged

You guys must be from a totally different generation lolllzzzz

 

Why would you say that? There are some of us who don't see a need to be connected 24/7. I've lived quite happily without FaceBook & much of the other social media that so many seem to be addicted to.

 

I did not know which way to take it.Either that we are old school and not into technology or that we are spoiled living in the U.S. I once worked with a lady who was from Africa.She told me that she thought Americans were spoiled and that we took for granted the things that her people only dreamed of having.

 

 

I'm not sure either, but I've always looked a technology as a tool and nothing more. I've seen many of the younger folks who seem addicted to their phones, and one at work who freaked out when the internet went down for about 45 minutes. The 'net going down is not unusual on our shift because night shift is when much network maintenance is done because few users are online. Still, it was a bit unnerving to see someone acting like a drug addict looking for a fix. I'd rather avoid that and controlled by the Holy Spirit rather than "things."

I have seen many who are very addicted to their cell phones.They have them plastered to their face almost constantly.That can not be too healthy.

I use my cell phone for just about everything from banking to reading my Kindle books to reading Worthy and Facebook and reading both our local TV station news and CNN and Drudge.           If you use it for more than a phone you can use it a lot.....

 

However texting every little thing you do to all your friends is way too much..       but you might see me in the corner reading one of my five Bibles that I store on my phone.

I am on my computer a lot.Just because I live in a very remote area in the country.I am secluded.The computer is my only means for social contact.I rarely get a call.

Challenge yourself to live like the Amish.Void of all electronic devices for a year.You would be allowed to have a car though and a land line.Just think of all the money you could save.

What is right for one person may not be right for someone else.

There is no way I would give up technology for more than a few days, why go backwards?
