Ok what have I been thinking about on this Wednesday (hump day) as its being called more and more now? Let's see, things are starting to pick up at work more. I am getting more things to do, more projects, etc...I finally got this blog linked to FB so maybe I can get more readers and subscribers checking out the articles and video's posted. Maybe even they will "like" the page. They don't have to check it out everyday but the likes would be cool. I don't know, I'm just trying to expand my horizons. I would like to reach more and more people. Selling items is not something I want to do nor would I try to do that in my blog or on my site. I want to be able to get the information out to the world, to the ones that don't read everything at once or should I say, don't check all mediums of social media. I know with so many different sites out there it can be very daunting, especially if you have a day job.
My take on technology....its both good and bad. I think its good in that it gives us more to do, connects us with others and makes things easier such as work, entertainment and getting in touch with others. At the same time it is a bad thing in the fact that it has made us lazy, disrespectful and dumber. Think about it, we don't have to send documents by mail anymore, therefore decreasing jobs. We don't all gather together to eat meals with the family, always grabbing something on the go. Go to any airport, train station, cruise ship or whatever means of transportation and you will find 90% of the people with their heads down reading, looking, playing on their phones or tablets. What happened to good old fashioned work, what happened to talking with people? I know, I know, its very ironic that as I am writing this I am complaining about the very thing I'm using to get my thoughts out. That's ok, like I said its both good and bad. Probably more bad for the younger generation, I mean what 10 year old needs a cell phone? Make them get out of the house and play with friends. When I was growing up we went out and played, drank water from the hose, stayed out as long as we could with no electronics because we wanted to spend time with friends. This was with no vehicles either!
There is no discipline from parents now a days either. They are afraid to spank the child because some idiot will call child services on them. If your spanking them because they did something wrong and not trying to hurt them but doing it in love; then there is nothing wrong with that!! Parents, teach your kids respect, manners, sympathy, understanding and empathy. They don't need to sit in front of a video game all day long playing "kill em all" or something. They can do that when they are adults if they want. Read to them, do something constructive but don't let 'em walk all over you. Remember your the adult, if they wanna cry, let 'em cry for goodness sakes. Invest in some earplugs. Maybe they will get the hint that there not always going to get what they want.
Anyway just my opinion, sorry if I offended anyone but we are in AMERICA where we have the freedom to think how we want. Hope you all have a great day and spread the word. Thanks
