So I’ve decided, work is work and computers are dumb. Now you may think “Spencer have you gone crazy?? Computer’s? Dumb? You think? What?” but it’s true. I’ve experienced many problems with compatibility issues for computer all the time. From one program blocking another, to formatting issues, to websites going down and thus screwing up my website. So it all comes back to no matter what we create that’s supposed to make life better (cars, computers, ovens, houses, government) life stays the same difficulty, or harder. Seriously! Think about it. If we hadn’t invented cars, we wouldn’t have to travel far for work, or church, or to visit friends, thus we wouldn’t have to pay for Gas, and Road taxed and the car, thus we wouldn’t need as much money, thus we wouldn’t have to work as hard… got it? Another example. If we hadn’t invented computers, then they wouldn’t break down, and thus loose important data. There are so many things. The more we build the more problems we have. The more problems we have the more we build to solve the problems we have. Thus an endless cycle. It will never end. Yes there are benefits to things. If I didn’t have a computer I wouldn’t be able to be writing this write now, and you couldn’t be reading it. Then again maybe if we didn’t have computers I would be hanging out with you, rather than you reading my Blog. Understand. Therefore be content with what you have.
Hebrews 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you.”

Haha! This is cleverly amusing. And very true. I think that we are trying to obtain happiness by having whatever we want. Fast transportation, instant communication anywhere and whatnot, but people are looking for happiness in the wrong things…thus, we keep “moving forward”.
