To Hell With Technology



We live in a society that lives and breathes technology. Studies suggest that most, if not all of us, own at least a cell phone, television, or computer that we frequently rely on in our daily lives. So often, that many of us couldn’t begin to conceptualize how all the generations before us managed to survive! Think for a moment what it might be like if you suddenly felt the spontaneous urge to abandon all the devices that keep you plugged in with the rest of world, only to become one with yourself. Pretty scary right? “I couldn’t,” she says. “Well I could!” another says.
This is but a glimpse of what Chris was stepping into around the time he decided to leave the world behind, and step into his own life. A false sense of reality continues to be painted for us, so much that we never are able to feel what it’s like to really live off the bare necessities. I admire Chris for his courage whilst on his quest to find true happiness. I would be able to abandon all my technology. However, I would have to have a source of music; guitar, bongo, etc. and a partner. Could you make the move?
