actions, reactions

It's very rudimentary.  Some people are nice.  Others are not.  I'm thinking these days that when we travel in Europe. I don't need to go to museums as I could feel the sense of the population in the zen of the moment.  I could observe behavior. I don't need to see artifacts of history. 

My work helps me interact with people of different nationalities. Others see my flat nose and dwarf like stature and it's serfdom all over again.  C'mon.

I believe we should be nice to each other. As karma is a bitch. It really is, so better say please and thank you. 

to look back, beyond

Do I sometimes wish I have instagram and living my life through the number of likes I get every single day? 

No.

I came of age when social media is non-existent.  We didn't even have a phone line.  So my means of communication is actually seeing my friends and relatives in the flesh.  After the undergraduate degree, it was so easy to lose track of a few significant people from school.  But there were always ways to correspond. I wrote letters.  Maybe I wrote a lot of crap.  I was young, there was no internet,  I had to buy books and magazines or go to the library.

These days, it's way too easy.  The acquaintances who knew me when I was seven or younger are just a click away. Ironically, I've become too complacent. Maybe it's time to reverse that trend a little bit.
