Hello world! Hello 2021!

A new decade is upon us yet Y2K feels like just yesterday. The world is moving so fast sometimes I can barely keep up. Being a kid of the 80’s I saw first hand the rapid changes from our analogue lives to this new digital world. It was awesome!.. well, at least it was awesome. We enjoyed some great advancements in tech that were surely needed and that made life easier. Google was god, high speed internet was our water, and mobile phones changed the way we stayed connected.

But somewhere along the line, something changed. I’m starting to feel like I’ve lost control. I’ve lost my ability to use technology as just a tool. Instead, I have become slave to it unable to walk away. What is it about being connected that I need so much? And how did I cope 20 years ago? Any one else feeling the same?
