I am just now coming back from being unplugged for four days. I am still on vacation (until the 11th) but I couldn’t stand being away for more than a couple of days. It is hard to balance leaving a world that you use on a daily basis and be completed pulled away from it… for more than 2 hours. Many would say, “Kyle. You are absolutely crazy. Your life is rotting away because of the Internet.”

To that i say… actually… I wouldn’t say a thing. It is impossible to argue with individuals who insist on taking the Internet to the level of some type of brain rot. I don’t find an issue with having the inability to unplug for more than 4 days. There is something built into the nature of social media… a social aspect that keeps you from staying away for more than a 4 day period.

I gain thousands of ideas and insights from using social media. There is a reason for my use of this wonderful tool and it is knowledge. Knowledge from millions of people across the globe. Ayn Rand would be proud of my selfish nature while using social media.

I will be in touch soon. Time to go wake boarding
