Maybe, just maybe if you were to travel to another country and shut off all electronics, then you can really be off.
But even then, it’s a smallll world.
(Even when I was in Cambodia at an off-the-beaten path bar, the bartender happened to be someone from Madison, WI.)
Whether we want to or not, we always have to be on.
In the hyper-connected world we live in, the expression of “what you do when no one is watching” doesn’t apply, because someone always is – one way or another.
This fact, of course, isn’t one to be frustrated with or something worth trying to fight.
We can use it as a reminder to be accountable, caring and more thoughtful.
Stay Positive & Appreciative That There’s No Switch
