Smart phones, digital cameras, tablets, camcorders, Laptops, I-pods, TV, video games, remote controls, face book and twitter, all this was meant to cut out the clutter and make life simpler. Do we get time to pause, think? Let alone meditate.
In the near future we will all evolve into a species of gizmo toting nomads; roaming the desolate landscape and scrounging for electrical outlets to recharge their gadgets, while these is no time to relax or recharge our own batteries.
The supposedly great misery of the 21st century is the lack of time itself; or our sense of that or not a disinterested love of science, and certainly not wisdom.
Why do we devote such a huge proportion of the ingenuity and income of our societies to finding faster ways of doing things - as if the final aim of mankind was to grow closer not to perfect humanity; but to a perfect lightning flash.
The one commodity that is becoming scarce is the leisure to enjoy life. A sense of déjà vu took me back when I was a little boy, I found myself re-living the past, when life was simple. - Vinay-
