Cleaning
Cleaning is a pain. I have such a hard time with it sometime as I can become so distracted with all of the trinkets I have collected. It is fortunate that I have so much stuff, but on the other hand it begins to control you if you are not careful.
screens
I have come to the realization that I have too many screens.
am I going to do anything about this?
no...
I am just another wrapped up in the false, simulacra of this world.
all in the same room I have :
the plugs indeed run deep.
this reminds me of the allegory of the cave, with so many representations and fantasy worlds at our fingertips it is too easy for me to allow myself to become disconnected from the world (with the irony that I have become more connected to the internet). am I any more happy or self actualized as a person because of this? arguable no.
am I better off because of this technology? questionable.
I am glad that I have come to this realization. now to just actualize this realization is another problem in itself.
