I am all for, you know, the whole Zen living thing, being simple, yoga, exercise, eat right etc but the notion of having to go a month without television, radio, music...and *cough *cough *up *blood my devices and phone would be an atrocious idea. Oh, I am in such a polite mood, am I not? =)
But this man kind of made it through theORDEAL experience of getting by the whole month without television, radio or I suppose any other distracting entertainment and I have to give KUDOS where KUDOS is due. OK, so it was selective elimination, he wrote but still. That is an incredibly hard feat to beat in the modern world that we live in today.
I thrive, no, my work....no, wait, my LIFE thrives on the fact that nearly everything is borderless with the internet. Perhaps, I would have to admit that THAT is the reason why we suffer today - the inability to actually carry a proper conversation with your friends without bringing up his or her latest Facebook status update. The inability to sit through dinner without wondering which celeb tweeted what. The astounding silence that rings in a room when there is NO WIFI!!!! NO WI-WHAT?
I can't imagine that. NO.
And no WaLaiToi? No KBSWorld? No EOnline?
Don't worry, I am still alive and well....kinda....most of the time so, I am more aware of what it can do to people. Therefore, you can safely conclude that I lay off sugar like I lay off cockroaches. So, I can probably do the NO SUGAR challenge....except that, what do I put in my Nescafe now?
Let me negotiate with my inner being for a while to see if planting one small dash of sugar into my morning drink warrants sending me to the gallows for the sinners of everything healthy.
And in the meantime, rock on, folks. Rock on. And maybe sleep well too.
XOXO,
Marsha

Now sugar, I can probably live without. I don't know, when I was younger, I had run-ins with an eating disorder because I felt like I was the fattest animal to roam the planet all the time even when I was wafer thin. I didn't know the name then but I know it to be anorexia now.
