unplugged . . . again :)

As my header description says, I have 'unplugged' from 

several things over the last year or so . . . . 

and I did it again last week!  Getting away from the computer, 

all the tech devices and out of our apartment is 

good for the soul, provides rest, needed solitude

and creates inspiration.  




The rest, for me, helps with authenticity.  


Our lives are so 'data full', we do not have time to

sort out our thoughts finding who we are  . . .

actually.  

Being authentic is a process of being who we are 

and who we were made to be, not 

who someone else thinks that we are.  

If we don't have quiet times to contemplate, 

we may not be able to sort out 

encroaching thoughts from 

the bona fide 'you' thoughts. 






I encourage everyone 

to get outside, seek solitude 

at least occasionally!
