The ease.

 







Dear Friends,

A woman writer friend of mine, one that I stay in contact with through the flattening affect pasta machines of the digital devices, says something that sounds pretty much like "we don't have a technology problem, we have a Capitalism problem."*  It fit, for me, into a story of how we got to this field strewn with the broken rubble of culture and society that I keep stumbling over in my haste to try to Understand Things as They Are.

Obviously, I could probably find more clarity if I stopped trying to Understand Things; and I am working on that, too, in a multi-pronged approach to coping.  Anyway, it isn't always about me (ha- that's a bald faced lie, isn't it?); it's about my friend and her suggestion to read this interesting article.

May reading it help you in your daily sorting of murky facts & ever more terrible news!  And if not that, well, may it make you feel less lonely while you scamper around that field of broken stuff.
