Past reading. (Mood Disorders and The Ecology of Mind)

I myself find this reading interesting due to how I was born and raised on a farm my whole life. I live in a small town called Stewartstown, There is no stop lights, no big name stores or restaurants; just small "mom and pop" businesses. In this small quiet town everyone knows everyone and greets each other with a smile. When I first came to ship I thought this place was a city compared to Stewartstown. Imagine the Andy Griffith show (if anyone even knows what i'm talking about). A small town, small businesses, friendly faces everywhere, basically it's your small black and white 1940s town. The new technology that everyone had to have wasn't new to us, in fact we didn't even know about it, nor did we care to. We loved sleeping under the stars, I still do on nice warm nights. I'm awful when it comes to technology. So it was somewhat discomforting to read about families growing apart or the general public waiting for the next big thing; succumbing to the power of technology. I believe that we should slowly try and break these bonds. Cut back on the texting, actually get up from your computer and leave facebook alone for a few hours. Go out Hike, camp, jog, or just play a board game with family or friends. Stir up some human interaction, and be more social.
