The Simplicity of Serenity

We live in a highly connected society. An earthquake half way around the world is instantly posted on the Internet and broadcast on television. News that once took weeks or months to reach us now takes milliseconds. Much good has come from the ability to instantly communicate, but it is also the cause of much sorrow. Negativity has multiplied, and technology-enabled addictions are a growing problem.

The answer is simple: unplug.

Not permanently, but periodically.

Take a vacation from technology and remember that life was meant for living. Step away from virtual reality long enough to experience actual reality. It's not as bad as some people claim.

Seek serenity in nature, and through interaction with loved ones. Serve. Smile. Play. Talk face to face. Breathe. Laugh. Dance. In other words, live your life, and enjoy the increased clarity and peace that will surely follow.
