Just tossing this out there...
A few years ago, I felt so completely at peace when power went out for a couple of days. We used candles at night. I spent some great quality time reading paper books.
My mind felt focused, free and interestingly... it felt like I had ownership of it again.
So much of the content we're exposed to is opinionated - meant to persuade and sometimes to manipulate. It was nice to be free of that. I make sure to unplug regularly now.
- eesmith 3y agoThat sounds lovely! I used to read a lot. Now I just skim pointless internet things. I need to break that bad habit. I've a pile of book "to read some day". I think I'll start tonight. (I hope.)
- eesmith 3y agoI started reading a book last evening. It wasn't as easy as it used to be. Perhaps I was too tired. More likely I'm used to grazing, not reading. I'll keep on trying.
