I've noticed lately, that without my willing it, my mind has been gently saying goodbye to technological civilization, and looking towards a future without it
I find myself turning on the lamp, or the kitchen faucet, and thinking how convenient it is to have these things, reliably, and how it will be a different life, not to
It's a bit like when a friend of mine was buying a house, and she said, 'In my mind, I am living there already'
It's also a bit like when doctors tell me I don't have long to live, and I appreciate every tree and smile, while saying goodbye
Anybody else experiencing this? What are you saying goodbye to?
