Don't Hate: Appreciate

~ Jesus Christ is my savior ~ My heart is in art. I love to inspire and be inspired. And I apologize now for the randomness that makes up my blog.

Another thing I loved about the Wonder Woman movie is that it’s not the lofty and noble and powerful who come to her aid. No, the ones who end up rallying enthusiastically behind her are a crew of louts who’ve already been beaten down and broken by the worst war has to offer; cynical, hardened, and bitter and one suffering especially miserably from what would later be named ptsd. Utterly ordinary people who would, by the end, be willing to risk their necks for the greater good. No finer example that mankind can pick itself up from the ashes to do better.

one of my absolutely favourite moments of wonder woman was diana tasting the ice cream and going like “you should be very proud of yourself” to the vendor, she had tasted bliss

Allow me to Explain

I prefer to be thought of as a analyzer rather than a hypocritical, extremist and cynic, because I realize that having some objections to this ever-growing subject is often done critically.  I don’t desire that at all.

What exactly am I talking about?

Technology. 

Yup, now you’re probably skeptical of me.  Let’s clear some things up first: I do not hate technology.  I mean c’mon, if I truly hated technology, would I be posting this on a website?  I simply have some concerns as I take a step back to truly observe how we’re shaping technology or, rather, how I think technology is shaping us.  

As I have used medias like Snapchat, Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, and (barely) Twitter, I have gotten hooked and used them excessively.  And then I started getting frustrated with myself, so I started toning things down.  Again, no, I do not hate social media.  I have accounts on all of these social platforms (although my Snapchat is on hiatus and my Twitter is such a joke.)  I’ve just started actually observing the effects of its use.  Not all of them are bad, like being able to share and read others’ perspectives is fantastic, but I’ve discovered a lot of upsetting truths as well.

As a young woman from the supposed ‘tech-savvy generation’, I look forward to begin sharing my perspective on our use of technology.

My favourite part of Penguins of Madagascar was definitely Dave putting actors and actresses names in normal sentences.
