RE: New 50-word story prompt, plus an announcement
That warms my heart! Thank you, @negativer. Whenever I come to our family cabin on the Lost Coast, I am reminded of my technology addiction. And with only occasional access, I am reminded that the world does not come to an end without it.
I admit those same thoughts were in my head as I imposed my own partial ban on tech last week when I was in Denver. I had decent internet access, but chose not to utilize it for anything other than work-related fires (and checking the weather). The week off from the assumption that you have to be connected 24/7 is refreshing and does rearrange one's priorities a bit.
You are on point.
I occasionally declare some days 'tech Sabbath' to be able to focus on other important things in life, spending time with family and enjoying the gentle embrace of nature.
I always come out such periods fully energised and refreshed with new enthusiasm to face all of life's hurdles.
It’s a good reminder!
