I OFFICIALLY HATE TECHNOLOGY!
I know, hate is a very powerful word. And oh the irony that I am sitting here, at this moment, composing a blog, on technology.
Now to clarify, it's not the physical technology I hate. Computers are useful. Phones are useful. I do like being able to look things up when I can't get to my books. Yes I still prefer books. I also still prefer people. But not the social media people. The influencers and the people that make me feel like I have to be on 24/7. To be honest, I think I'm just officially tired.
So to be even more honest with you, the last two days, actually the last week, every time I have gone to check messages or look through social media to see if there's a comment that I've missed that I need to respond to, or even just deal with the inundation of messages from emails and texts and 500 other things I need to sort through, I just couldn't. So for those of you who have not received reply back for me in days, I do apologize. It's not you. It really is me. Every time I went to check technology of the mass media variety, for some reason my body just felt sick. Like honest to God nauseous sick....
I even checked to see when Mercury's pre-retrograde shadow was, and then I thought, there is only sooooooo much one should blame on poor little Mercury. I even went to get blood work to see if there was something wrong with me. And now I know, it's not physical. I think it's my spiritual body saying it's time to shift... Again!
As much as all of these new world downloads so to speak, are ready for the taking, as much as it is here to make our life easier, the more I use it, the more exhausted that I feel. Does anyone else resonate with this?
I know there's been a whole bunch of people that I know that are going away from AI and anything that is generated from it. And yes I am as guilty as most using it on occasion to brainstorm and get ideas. To minimize having to surf through 20 websites to find an answer. But again I don't even know what's real anymore. Who is real. Where did we lose connection and the humanity?
So yes, I will still continue to use a little bit of help to create my "Raven says" posts. I like him. He is the one part of AI that still brings me joy. But if I'm not as productive, it's because I'm rewiring my brain to actually have creativity again, the way I used to. Running off of intuition and ideas, and a whole lot of coffee.
I will also be focusing on my discord group. I still want to be able to contact all of you! I love you, I'm just done with how I get to be part of your world when I can't see you in person. Harsh maybe, but this is the reality that I feel right now. And I hope that you join me there... The link to join will always be in my social media bios, and on the website, even if there isn't a whole lot of activity going on.
I also hope that we can create more in person. Build the personal connections that I want to nurture rather than just grow for the sake of growth.
I will still continue to use the blog here, for big rambles. They will be posted on social media, but if I don't get a comment back to you in a super fast amount of time, it's because I will be taking a couple more days hiatus every week. This is for my mental and spiritual health.
Rant over, and plenty of peace out!
