Sometimes I do step back and Ponder

Jax, my friend’s dog seems to do well with just morning walks and a milk bone now and then.  I don’t write that often on politics as I read it all the old-fashioned way in the morning.  There is that trend which some may profile a person as to whom they are rather that taking the time to read or listen. Yet that is so easily done in person. Part of today was cleaning up this building with a few others as it was in need of it as it may serve a purpose.  An organization here in town has been in need of some help, which I partook in.  Now for a building, which is not that large – there were things left go that really baffles me.  Some have that thought that someone else is going to take care of things.  This was one of those cases and nearly the basement was in dire straits to be cleaned up for the need of space.  The first thing that came to my mind was how things are left to go while an organization can function knowing full well that there shall come a time where things get to the point where they are in a crisis.  We cleaned out most of the things which could have been auctioned off or given to charity.  When I see organizations like this, which leave things go yet have an outcry for more money – it doesn’t really make sense.

I think we are moving at a pace where people are so focused that they miss out on some areas – not to mention that we are moving at a light speed of doing things all by a means and ways via the computer. A study showed today that there is the largest demand for skilled laborers and very well versed technology skilled people.  Now those are two entirely different areas.  Something natural is missing within this picture as there is nothing yet that replaces the six senses, nor the human condition.  We are living within an automation world of streams.  I myself can testify that within the evening, I do go online but I still enjoy reading, I love photography, and I most enjoy that humanistic communication. 

Are we getting closer, I am not sure as I get emails from the president as well as the prime minister in my email yet I know that to is the huge demand for organizations which produce – they are so good at it that they even have my own first name on each one of them.  I would assume that some of this does hit and make a great impact yet there are areas which technology does not come into the values of our lives.  Feelings are not something that can be felt by way of a sensory device, nor can the discussions between people be made in a spontaneous manner.  Alternatively, the feel of lying outside on a beach, getting up in the morning, and looking outdoors with a coffee within hand and countless other things.  I do enjoy the internet as well as this new era of expression.  Yet does one write for the sake of others or for the sake of an effort to replace the normal manner of communication?  I think your getting my point.  I am heading into the city tomorrow to take care of a few things, which would include one meeting, a check up with my doctor and a quick visit with my folks and one friend.  I know the outcome is going to be good either way it’s not from online it’s by without a computer.  I remember when there was a time in which we just had telephones and faxes.  If all failed within this camugla of the internet would we be less ahead or farther ahead in respect to the human condition.  Accessories are becoming necessities.  They have come to be necessities.  Yet I question are they a necessity in all realms of life?  

Regardless one does have to balance it all out yet when I see kids sitting behind a large screen playing games for hours, watching television for hours – are they better off in comparison to the old means and ways.  Are our youth that of a linear style of thinking more so than engaging and understanding life by a natural form of trial and error.
