Ok, it’s not a post about see the doctor. It’s not about growing old. It’s about – well, what else? Technology. Perhaps this is continuation of my previous article about how media storage has changed – in that what has also changed, with the technology, is how we interact. For …
Ok. I’m a bit dramatic as usual. But it’s a serious consideration. The Soul. What powers it? What preserves its essence. What keeps us going – in a good way? I often think of it as Consuming vs. Creating. The less we Create, the less we are taking care of …
Aside from all the horrible tragedies and sad losses we’ve experienced in 2016, another has come to light. Or rather, dark.
