As I lay here in bed, my mind wont let me sleep
so much running between these two ears
Its incredible to think about where we are these days
What did we do before google?
Before youtube?
Before the internet in general?
How did we learn anything?
I feel like we have the world at our fingertips
and I also feel that’s a major part of what keeps me up at night
the idea of knowing I can learn anything
I can do anything
I ask one question and it leads to two more
which then multiplies even further
I have an incredible thirst for knowledge
I wonder if minds where this active years ago?
Did people feel as empowered as we feel these days
With so many resources at the touch of a button
Most of which are available on the devices we carry in our pockets
Excuses are especially invalid these days
There’s no reason for people not to be pursuing their passion and dreams
Its an excitingly possible world out there
Which ironically makes it even more impossible for me to fall asleep
Aaaaahhhh this is so true – & I have wondered exactly the same!! I love technology & the endless possibilities that it provides us with!!

Thanks for the input Xandre!!
It is truly incredible, and it still has me up thinking… at 5:45 in the morning. Thank God I work from home and can get a nap in later this morning hahaha
And how would I know that your thoughts are exactly the same as mine if we didn’t have the Internet. In fact, I wouldn’t have met you without the Internet!! I often laugh and shake my head over how many times I use Google in the course of a day, and I’ll tell you it sure makes a parent’s job of answering kids” questions a great deal easier (you know, like why is the sky blue). This is a great post Nick!!
Thanks Cindy! Its funny you say that because I think about that a lot. How cool it will be when my niece gets old enough to start asking all the why and what questions, we can both learn together with google and youtube. Then by the time I have my own kids Ill know the answers already, and they will think Im the smartest man alive!!! lol
Excellent – will use this on my post and u xpress my sentiments exactily!
Sounds good Marion
