Lets analyze my mailbag
After my launch email to friends last week and securing over 5 readers a day, mail started to pour in from at least 3 states. New Jersey folks said hey can i get that NJ t-shirt at the WAWA?, some say they enjoy and laugh, while others say I am a loser that has way too much time on my hands. To the too busy people I say, take a look at the person who is typing in the keyboard. First, of all blogs are painless and are as simple as putting thoughts down and then complementing with this new thing called a Dig-i-tal camera. Think of the time that is wasted in a day, bs-ing at work, surfing the internet, flipping channels, or sitting in a freaking starbucks. I have refocused that energy. The american way is tell everyone just how busy you are to feel as though we are so productive and accomplished, meanwhile we are simply adding stress and becoming less productive with tools like the blackberry. If you have kids it's a whole other story, but interesting enough all the folks who sent me an email saying i have too much time on my hands don't have kids! So to those folks who wrote to me, i say this: i know there is something you are dying to do and using the excuse of no free time - go ahead start a jug band, volunteer, take a wood carving class - it's never too late.
