I’m sitting on my computer this Sunday morning looking out at the mountains and the world brighten every second from the snow cover from the night before as the sun rises . I chose to write a blog early in the morning simply because I believe the morning is the best time to reflect upon the actions of the past day. Having just created this blog on this wonderful day I can say I was surprised by the ease. Having already had a g-mail account the process was relatively simple and soon enough I had created my first blog. I always said I would never make one because I feel blogs are too close to keeping a journal and being a teenage boy I have rules against those kinds of things. So thanks Professor Leake for making me face my fears. The blog itself was literally a 5 click process, the most difficult thing being the decision of what username to use. It was so easy it put facebooks functionality to shame and left me wondering how fast technology is really advancing. It’s astounding to think that todays senior citizens grew up with virtually none of the technological amenities we have today. Things like computers, xbox’s, and ipods were literally non-existent and as I look out of my window from my desk I wonder if what they say is true. Are we losing our touch with nature? It literally feels like the digital universe is becoming an entirely separate plane of existence. I just created a piece of that existence in two minutes and on the other hand the snow outside is beautiful. I wonder how many people can really see it.
