    The irony is that we all had to watch the video on an electronic device. I am on my iPhone.

    That reminded me of the music video for Another Brick in the Wall.

    Hopefully this will cheer you all up:

    There are a few things that these crazy phones won't change, the smell of a great dish of food, the beauty of a flower blooming, the innocent precious smile of an infant newborn, the happiness our pets,dogs,cats,birds, show when they first see us , and the warmth of a smile when love is present. Some doctors now are prescribing walking in a park without a cell phone instead of medication. Give it time , the pendulum will swing back to center one day . It always does.

    If only folks would take the time to look around them.
    I miss having one on one conversations, where the person I am talking to will put down the phone,
    and actually look at me while I am talking with them, and hear what I am saying. Really sad.

    Imagine if the captains of industry and the mega-rich had the same mind set as these simple folk...
    Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend. Bruce Lee

    Free will can only be as free as the mind that conceives it.

    A film sprang to mind when I watched this. Cell, not the best film, has an interesting ending, 2016 Stephen King.
