I am about to do something I haven’t done since becoming “hyper connected” - I am about to go off the grid.  I will be traveling to a region sufficiently remote not to have cell phone coverage and there will be no wifi either.  I am both excited and a bit nervous about this prospect. The excitement part comes from anticipating that I might relax more, have more time to think without interruption, more time for the people around me, etc.  The nervousness arises from having a ton of things going on that might require some kind of response or input.  But even beyond that there is a sense of – if seen positively – being connected that comes from being part of the grid that I am nervous about giving up.  Of course – seen negatively – this is an addiction to information that is not healthy.  In any case, I will have 10 days without it and that will be an interesting experience above and beyond the travel itself.  Next post when I am back with how it was!
