Its funny how the same technology that speeds things up. Is the same technology that bogs us down. Theres so much automation, you dont even have to go to the bank anymore. The store, nor the post office for that matter. Theyve got no sort laundry detergent, Online Degrees, Automatic Bill Pay. You can even challenge a Monk living in the Swiss Alps to a virtual game of poker on your phone, while face timing. (Ok, maybe not a Monk) Yet all this, and still, no one has time for each other. Im trying to remain resistant. I automatically push 0 when prompted to key in my account numbers. Everyone knows me at the bank and grocery store. Cause I like old fashion! The truth be told my kids do too. Keturahs best birthday party? I took the kids in the back yard. We played kickball, and red light green light. They kept shouting One more game, PLEASE! This went on till nightfall. For Fatimahs party. I took her guest on a night hike and told them horror stories about different areas of the park, and anyone who jogged past. I had like eight kids clinging on to me. Those who couldnt grab a hand, clung on to the backs of the who did. They were so scared, and packed in so tight. We had to coordinate our steps to move forward as one unit! (It was funny until we got closer to the house and they all took off running. Leaving me by myself.) Then I looked around and started running too! As we all stood in the driveway, trying to catch our breath. I started to worry about the phone calls I may get from concerned parents. Then girls blurted out. Can you do that again tomarrow? -Yup, Im sticking with Old Fashion!
