Today is Thursday, January 27th and I am happy to be Alive.
Our internet service went out mid morning before I had really started on my online activity. We called in the outage and the message stated their was an upline outage that was occurring so until that was fixed no service would be available.
Not having internet makes you think about things in quite a different way. I wanted to look something up and get more information concerning a topic that I was reading about. But alas the internet was out. I wanted to listen to streaming music but again, no internet. It is funny how we now rely on the internet more than we thought we did.
After a little while of this, I decided to go outside and build a small warming fire to pass the time. It was actually very relaxing to not try to think about getting online for anything. I sat out by the fire for about three hours watching nature, the birds, clouds and everything else that is outside. It was very calming. Take care.

It's good to know you are alive and thriving.
The internet as so much impactful our lives till the point where we sometimes seems clueless without it.
Due to our regular power Outrage down here, I've learn to use those free times away from the internet to appreciate everything around me, and I am working on living of it at least for few hours daily, so as to concentrate on other offline important aspect of my life.
Thanks for sharing, and stay !ALIVE

That is a great idea! I think, because of my extensive internet consumption I am less creative in my everyday life. It is good to do such things!
Have a great day and stay healthy and #alive!

When it was out, there were several things I started to do then realized I could not. It was amazing how dependent on the net I have become.

I can imagine. Same here.
But sometimes I just take breaks ;-)

O yea we been on vacation this summer and we only have electricity, it is place on border and we not have mobile signal, internet and television, uf we rest like never before, play card, kids game, fishing, swimming... and wake up so early like never before-again :)
That is a great way to get away from everything. Take care.
Hello dear friend @darmst5339, Glad to see you alive in this planet like as me. Sorry to hear about internet outage of your area. Nowadays many people most involved with internet connection and can't do other things without internet facility. In fact, internet outage giving us big opportunities to think different ways like as what you did this day. Exactly you spent really nice time connected with nature. Great thinking and have a great day.
Thank you for the nice words. They are appreciated.

Thank God for the gift of life, but the issue about the internet is really not good. I'm sure the issue have been resolved now
Do have a great day
Yes it has been corrected and is back on.
That's good to hear
I'm glad you are alive and well, truly not having internet is little disappointing, missing the internet makes us realize that it is essential in our life, but truly we must disconnect from time to time from technology in order to enjoy the beautiful things around us.
I am so glad you enjoyed your campfire and the contact with nature.
Stay !ALIVE

Not having the internet for even few hours can be frustrating but thank God you made good use of the spare time. Keep living friend.
Thank you. It was very relaxing.
You are welcome. Do have a nice day ahead.
So sorry about the internet disruptions you experienced. Hope it has been restored by now? You've made a nice burn fire too. Cheers and happy weekend to you.
Thank you and I hope you have a great weekend as well.
Glad to see you alive and well . Sorry to hear about the internet problem but I hope it has been resolved @darmst5339
Thank you. The internet came back on 30 minutes prior to me making this post. It had been out all day.
Wow all day? It must be frustrating not having an internet. Every time I will be checking the phone to check the internet
Yep, it did feel like forever at first but then when I got outside I did not think about it.
Do have a wonderful weekend
If it is curious how we depend on the internet, but also that when we disconnect we feel more relaxed and happy, at least in my case.

There is nothing like a good fire on a cold winter day.
It was a nice small fire that provided enough heat to make it comfortable.
Several years ago I watched a YouTube video. The message was

It was not about the Internet connection, it was our connection with mobile or desktop. But, all are pretty much the same.
Your Internet connection issue took you closure to nature.

If internet issue you won't have think of fire warming and even think of writing such post which is now on today's daily spotlight. Everything happens for a reason so that one we talk and learn from. I am glad to know that the internet is now working perfectly fine. And despite the internet outage you still have good day with best post of today. Take care and have a great day.
I do agree every thing happens for a reason even if you do not know what it might be at that time.
Yeah! And when it does it becomes part of our life experience
Fantastic to see you alive with a warming fire David, and that was time well used when the internet was down, I assume it is fixed now as your post is up, enjoy your day and stay safe, awesome and alive.
