RE: There are No Words for This

in #writing7 years ago

I love this photo. There are some things in life that simply do not require words. Sunsets, Sunrises, experiencing the birth of a child .. those are just a few of the top ones on my list :)

In this digital age with information coming from all directions, it would be hard for most people to put more attention into something anyway.

I agree, but also disagree. People only pay attention for microseconds. No one has the attention span to focus on one thing anymore. It's a lost art, and it's ruining our society (in my opinion).

The more time people can take to "be bored" and explore their inner thoughts, as opposed to being told what to think and what to pay attention to, the better off we will all be as a society.

As cruel and terrible as this may sound, I can't wait for people to start growing inoperable brain tumors from the usage of smart phones. Then, maybe people will stop using them so much and start to take the time to look up and enjoy the wonderful world that is physically around us, as opposed to immersing themselves into a fictional world on the screen in front of them.
