KEEPING SCORE

Wednesday July 19, 2017

Our society is changing – not just technology, A.I., I.O.T., social media, news/fake news, reality vs. surrealism – but getting a grip on that pace of change, or change of pace. I feel we are not keeping up with anything, simply managing how far it is we are behind.

So, where are you, what’s your score?

We are surrounded by circumstances, not ‘quick circle the wagons – they’ve got us surrounded’ kind, meaning ‘surrounded by reality’.

In many respects, so much the same: wake, take out the trash, work, eat, sleep

Or, vastly different: what we think about, read about, care about

We’re all cause/effect people – like experiments in a study, the whole world our lab and someone is keeping score.

We toss around terms like ‘reality check’, but do we actually check-in to see how we are doing?
