I recently watched an interview with a 97-year-old philosopher, filmed just months before he passed. At the 15-minute mark, he talks about seeing trees blowing in the wind as a transcendent moment — and admits he didn't always see it that way.
That stuck with me. I want to see even the smallest things as transcendent, always. And I don't think I'm finding that by continuing to look things up, scroll, and stay tethered to a screen. I have an addiction to technology — no doubt about it.
So I'm preparing to break free: one full week with no technology, no filming. Starting next week.
I'll share a few thoughts over the next few days as I get ready. Maybe there's something in your own life you're ready to unplug from too.
