If u are reading this, u shouldn’t be!
Studies are showing that too much internet use is changing the way our brains work, especially when it involves children. And who among us is not a child at heart? Ergo, we can all be included on some level.
As I sit writing this, I am hard pressed to focus on what I am writing. I am struggling to find things to say and yet, have plenty to say. But what I am most concerned about is multitasking–how I may be perceived by the other human beings, some of them the most precious ones in my life, as I struggle to type, maintain eye contact with them, convince myself that what I write is worth being expressed, and convince the little one at my knee that I will soon be available to them for play.
I am being pulled in too many directions.
God pulls me, youth pulls me, others pull me, old age pulls me, and I am left trying to figure out which one has priority or better yet, who needs my focus the most?
That is the question I ask myself today and all of you.
Does reality and the immediate relationships in it need you more or do you feel needed more intensely by your vitual online world?
Which one is more fulfilling to you?
That is where you can find your priorities.
