Thanks

So we once again go through our cultural process of giving thanks, which is immediately followed by our cultural ritual of competitive scavenging. I hope this Thanksgiving was a heartwarming time for everyone. If it wasn’t though I hope it was at least a break in the monotony, a chance see the world from a quarter perspective.

I want this post to buck the hectic pattern that is easy to fall into this time of year and be a bit more reflective. I am grateful to have an opportunity and platform to express my ideas. I am grateful that the technology exists that allows me as well as so many others to share ideas so easily. There may be many problems with the way we are using these technological gifts. Perhaps our technology is using us more than we are using it. 1960s Media guru Marshall McLuhan whimsically articulates this theory when he says “We are the genitals of our technology. We exist only to improve next years model". Technological algorithms are not superior to our biological thought processes, but we have been flooded with so much technology we have yet to get a handle on what we are creating. We have not had the time cultural evolution requires to attune our consciousness to the new environments technology provides.

My small part in this is to ensure my content is significant in some way, that I attempt to enrich the reader in some way. Whether I accomplish this is up to debate, but I am trying to create consistent content that is not vapid, which I believe is a crucial step in Improving our relationship with technology.

I do wish some of my blogs came out better, but also I don’t want to over-edit myself. There are many evolving ideas I want to unpack. The more I write the more I realize that when looking at a topic from a certain perspective I have to ignore other perspectives. I have to make choices on what I want to talk about and leave a lot unsaid about any giving topic to say anything. My hope for this project is that over time, seemingly diverse topics such as massage and bodywork, language, consciousness, medical practices, and cultural taboos blur together in a myriad of ways to reveal new ways of perceiving the world.
