++ social networks ++ emails + 1 big conference = give me a dose of Seneca

“Everywhere is nowhere.

When a person spends all his time in foreign travel,

he ends by having

many acquaintances,

but no friends.”

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (c. 4 BC - 65 AD)

…more Seneca quotes…

one in a series of posts about the need to unplug, find balance, reclaim your visceral life and self, espousing what I most need to learn…

    Libby!

    I’ve started completely unplugging at the weekends since not feeling like Christmas was a holiday, and fearing that I didn’t really CONNECT with people face to face as much as I should have done then.

    It’s really nice to not be looking at a screen…actually seeing people rather than just COMMUNICATING with them via other mediums.

    See you all soon
