Wither are we bound?

All this noise, I’m waking up
And all the space, I’m taking up
I said I cannot hear you, you’re breaking up
– coldplay

I don’t know. Sometimes I get a bit tired of all the social media chatter. Mine too, to be honest. Occasionally I think you have to put it all in perspective. Especially when you live or work at a computer and are simply too close to it all. Face booking, blogging, twittering, twibing and whatever else popped last night while I slept do have their good sides. I’m reminded however of an article I read recently about companies struggling for content these days. It seems we’re on a chattering arms race while many are  simply  struggling to find something original to say. Sometimes I think it’s a good idea to just shut it all down and listen to the  thunder rumbling outside the window. Now THAT is something you don’t want to miss.

    I did that last night. Sat on the porch with the windows open, lights off, and watching huge lightening bolts shoot across the sky. :)

    I am amazed, I can actually quote Music Lyrics ( capitalized on purpose ) back at you, Derick :)


    Words like violence
    Break the silence
    Come crashing in
    Into my little world
    Painful to me
    Pierce right through me

    Hi Derrick,
    From the great kayaking North in Canada, I hear you on that. Last night I stepped away from all the computer and information highway hype after giving two 17 foot kayaks a rub down with 303 sunscreen.

    I just sat there with them for about 30 minutes in the garage in the middle of my suburban neighborhood. My breathing became something that usually occurs after 1 hour of a Hatha yoga class. Now it’s time to do that with them out on the water! Great moody pic. You take great shots!
