Tough times these days. Can't get enough alone time (meaning blog time), and no stable internet connection.
Not really complaining, just saying.
I could start writing plain old school, on paper, whenever wherever and then just post it online some other time, but I don't much find the time to do that either. So I am seizing the opportunity.
Quoting my FB statuses earlier today (for future reference):
"Everything most people do today is quote others, or if not that, they listen in on conversations and approve or disapprove. Their minds barely get exercised anymore. Copying, liking and sharing, rephrasing, retweeting, repinning, reposting... The internet is making machines out of us.
Blogs used to be like journals and now they are full of other people's opinions resulting in less discourse in the world. Where is your own idea, your own say in the matter?"
It's essential to be alone sometimes. Where do you think Introverts get their ideas from? The term isn't an insult. I'd gladly be one if it meant I had always something smart to say. ;)
***notice that it's the 2nd time I mention introverts in my blog. I think I might be obsessed with 'em. LOL nahh.
"I think people should just stay home one random weekend or cancel all the useless tedious plans on a free weekday, you know, isolate themselves.
Instead of doing the usual partying, movie marathon, or sitting in front of the machine, get up early one Sunday, have a cup of coffee or tea, watch the sun come up and let your thoughts go from there. You might surprise yourself with ideas that might seem worthy to mention the next time you're out."
Like I said, alone time, man. I still have those moments from time to time but I never find myself with a means to put down my thoughts. You know, I read once that $3 million ideas usually come at 3 a.m. HAHA!
So you best keep a notepad and pen on your night stand. But that's just a gist. I need one at all times. They're so random, I think I'm losing $3 million dollars over three times a day. Just kidding!
