It’s 2009 and we’re all wired.  A lot of people are terrifically proud of how connected they are 24 hours a day.  Call me old fashioned but I’ve decided to put a bit of brake on the fast lane of electronic life.  Read on and let me know if any of this strikes a chord with you…

Having just returned from 3 weeks without Internet, I find myself tiptoeing back into cyberspace rather reluctantly.  I’m incredibly blessed that my life and work here in East Africa takes me into places that are beyond the reach of the electronic world.  I’m also blessed that here at my desk in the city of Arusha, I generally do have access, when I need it.  (More or less!)

But do I want it? That’s my question as I gingerly open my inbox, my blog, my facebook and my twittering.
