Technology Kills Creativity
Especially in this day and age.
I've come to seriously loathe technology.
As ironic and hypocritical that is,
it's true.
Sure, I use an iPod.
Yea, you're reading this from the internet.
But I had a talk with my father a few days ago,
and we came to a mutual decision that
technology kills creativity.
Life is too easy for us these days.
We are no longer required to think.
We have computers, calculators, and palm pilots
to do the thinking for us.
If you want or need to know something,
the only thing required of you is to be able
to type a few letters on a keyboard.
For reasons I wouldn't like to discuss,
I have deleted my 'Myspace' and 'Facebook' accounts.
And I feel like it's one of the best
things I've ever done in my life.
I haven't realized it quite as much as I have recently,
but these sites are insane.
Even this one.
But nobody reads a livejournal.
Myspace and facebook are much too popular.
Promoting yourself.
Typing about yourself.
Exposing yourself.
It's all so selfish.
And I was so much a part of it.
It's depressing.
So I'm probably just going to
occasionally type in my livejournal,
that I've happened to forget about
over the last couple of years.
Anyway.
The weather is beautiful,
and I'm going outside to read
my history book.
Log-off.
Living your own life is a lot
more interesting than reading about others'.
