- This is a great video and one of my favorites. It speaks for itself...and is always relevant. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I have. ;)

Very interesting, potentially enlightening and extremely cool - but be careful with it and don't believe everything you see, and hear. If you feel it, it is probably closer to truth. ;)

This is a very good video. It somewhat explains the reason I avoid posting things that tend to 'infect' people in a negative way and try to inspire and enlighten people. We all should consider carefully what we post to social networks and remember that, even though we might see it one way, others might interpret it another way. If that happens, we should also probably do our best not to let the differences devolve into dangerous arguments. Many people believe that others see things the same way they do but that is not even remotely true, considering we all come from vastly different lives, by way of experience, even if they are similar in many cases. This is why things like Twitter and other Social Media that don't allow us to clearly express ourselves and out opinions can backfire so often. Even when we do have to opportunity to be clear, if we are not, that can also cause our posts to backfire. We have to remember that we are the caretakers and creators of the environments we live in, so we should take care that we don't create an environment that we find hostile to live in and focus on improving it so that we can feel comfortable there...and others can too. That is the nature of social responsibility...without it, you will either become an enemy of society - or a hermit. There is nothing pleasant about those environments. ;)

This article's message seems to be timeless, probably because people continue to fail to realize the wisdom within. It is well worth reading all the way to the end... And even better to remember is: We should be aware of those people around us who have dangerous, inflexible ideologies - and even more concerned when we notice them within ourselves. There is no balance in such a mentality and life is all about balance.

There is no balance in such a mentality and life is all about balance. - In a more broad sense, this is the definition of 'fake news'... It's been perpetrated and 'spun'...globally and by nearly every government, including (most prominently) the United States (as well as those who buy into it), for reasons of questionable policy propagation and acceptance. This is what fear and propaganda do - they allow governments to get away with murder while making their citizens unwitting (and sometimes, witting) accomplices. Meanwhile, they also remove any hope for peace and erode citizens' freedoms. In such cases, who is REALLY eroding those freedoms? Maybe it is the citizens... ______________________ 'Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.' - Benjamin Franklin ______________________ The evidence is all around us. One would have to be blind - or willfully ignorant - not to notice. [A long read, but well worth the effort!]

Technology Then and Now


Technology Then and Now - Before there were computers and software that could stitch together digital images, they were printed on photo paper, trimmed by hand, and taped in place on a large black board.
