like many others, i find myself in a constant struggle between being connected and disconnected. however, more often than not, i find times of peace and clarity when my phone is no where to be found and i am focused on connecting to everything thats around me.
Is this some sort of signaling/dog-whistling for Western nationalists? Why do you only cite the country of TikTok, vilifying China, while not doing the same for Facebook, IG etc? Is it because it is not popular to say "addicted to their American war machine" or are you intentionally creating a hostile narrative towards cultures and countries you are not familiar with?
This is a great post, very inspiring. Also very questioning of our habits/addition.
Your writing is making me think and act in a way that improves my ability to enjoy more of life.
I thank you and encourage you in your process of bringing back the humanity in all of us.
