high school

i graduated high school in 1974, a mere 35 years ago but oh so much longer when you start to compare, to look around. we thought we knew everything back then but now a combination of technology, a greying of the grey matter and the unrelenting wave of information have ganged up to make us....stupid? theres just too much stuff we have to know. if i could make myself stay up 24 hours a day, read twelve newspapers [a dying medium i know but i love them] watch all the news shows, listen to hundreds of radio stations and blog myself silly i would STILL be falling behind. theres so much i want to know but its hard to seperate the important things from thefiller that fills our minds daily. that might be the idea, bomb us with everything and we remember nothing. a happy society is a confused society? this whole world we live in could just be a goverment plot gone awry. we''ll never really know, will we?it would explain why we continue to let politicians and wall streeters to ''manage'' our money, our lives. is free will gone? have we ever really had it? i'm dying to know, and thats probably when i will.........next blog, more stuff from the past, love ya''ll, jc

  1. Wow, I know exactly what you mean! I read once that stress and depression increases in direct proportion to the amount of information we are bombarded with and our brains have to sift through daily, and I can totally validate that.
