I don’t know if you’ve noticed how we’ve become a society of non-thinkers? It could be that we’ve been that way for a long time and in many societies. Though, today, it’s may more prevalent. Too many people are zoned out or is it tuned out. Maybe it’s because of too much information or too much reality TV. Whatever it is, I say “It’s time to wake up!”
Too many people are walking around in a zombie-like state. Heck, they’re walking around and focused on their smart phone, not noticing the dangers around them. How many will remember that lady in a mall that did just that and walked herself right into a water fountain? I know it seems funny, though it could have been a moving car instead of a water fountain.
Maybe we need to take time to unplug and wake up. Get out and experience nature. Get out and talk to people in person. Heck, talk to people over the phone and not text so much. Start doing more of what we used to do. Experience life and live in the moment. Start listening to your own voice and not the opinion of others. BTW, discover the power of mindfulness and meditation. It’s great way to learn how to live in the moment.
You have a brain… Start using it the way it’s supposed to be used! Again, “It’s Time to Wake Up!”
