Overwhelmed

By technology in general, by Gaia, by life.  Part of me really likes that there is a online spiritual community, part of me thinks it is really hindering my spirituality to be online at all. Shouldn't I be out in nature?  Shouldn't I be out connecting with people in the flesh? Part of me wants to shun my computer for weeks on end and really talk and connect with people face to face.  I am lucky to live in Portland and get to do this.  Some people live in rural communities and perhaps these online connections mean more to them and are more important. 

Life is so busy right now:  with work, school, teaching yoga, teacher training.  I hardly ever get time to come on here and update my blog.  How is everyone dealing with Facebook, Twitter, Gaia, blogging, posting, texting, all while living their lives in the full outside of the internet world? 

I'm really asking here.  I want to know.  Maybe I will post this question on a group, but which group?  There are so many?  I'm not sure which ones to join, which posts to read, where to direct my attention.  All while preparing for finals, a trip to the desert to calm my brain and get some sun.

All in all, I am feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated, and a little lost in all the online stuff.  It makes me feel kind of old! 

Love and light,
Tasha
