Lockdown Day 16: Information Overload

Maybe too much information is making my brain foggy. There is so much available at all times of day and night. Not that I look at any of it at night, but I know some people do. We are bombarded if we allow it. Social media, TV, radio. It’s sometimes exhausting trying to discern between facts and fake news. It’s far less taxing to just look at the humorous posts.

But if we don’t look beyond the funnies, are we in danger of making our world too small? Are we just seeking out information that reinforces our own personal viewpoint? Or do we also allow in the information that challenges our own viewpoint? Do we ask ourselves the difficult questions? Do we fact check the posts that reinforce our thinking?

Are we going to let all that information shrink or expand our world, our thinking?

God bless!
