We live in the age of technology
Where everything is a quick fix
We get everything instantly
Whether we want it or not
We are bombarded by information
On a daily basis
We often can become overwhelmed
By the senses
And the information
That is being thrown at us
It can be hard
To dissociate from reality
Living in a digital fantasy
Moving farther and farther away
From what is real
We need to be willing
To step away from our technology
Start focusing on what is real
Right in front of our faces
Take time to really see
The actual beauty
That comes from
Connecting with the earth
In real and whole ways
Connecting with people
In real and whole ways
Once you start to see
Reality for what it is
You will start to see
Just how hollow
Those old fantasies
Used to be
