F*CK the Metaverse

The Metaverse?

I think I got through a quarter of Mark Zuckerberg’s add before all the cells in my body rejected the concept. The concept of disconnecting further from nature and plugging into technology. An alternate reality. Where our senses are overloaded by screens and blue light. A universe unsuited for humans to inhabit.

Seeing this add makes me want to regress back to childhood where I felt the grass and leaves, the flowers and birds, the bees and trees, the sunshine.

Just as animals would not thrive with technology swallowing them, WE ARE ANIMALS.

Our souls thrive to be wild and free, free from this addiction to the screens. Please take a minute and go to your Settings in your phone and check your current daily Screen Time. The average person is not present in this physical reality for 7 hours and 11 minutes a day.

 SEVEN HOURS AND ELEVEN MINUTES.

Can we afford to lose more REAL time?!

Can we afford the younger generation to be further disconnected and desensitized from the natural world?

Can we afford a shorter attention span than our current 3 seconds?

 Listening to music on a device,

We forget how good it sounds live,

Watching rolling pictures on a screen,

We lose touch with the meaning of green,

We have less desire to notice the greed,

The misplaced power, this Society,

We have less time to rethink our decisions,

Or analyze the roots of our anxiety,

We don’t think about health,

Just a bit of social life and some wealth,

To acquire more things,

Have you noticed the birds started to sing?

The skies can breathe, the leaves are green,

In this world, Nature is King.

Shedding our prior beliefs and disbeliefs,

We create the evolution we want to see,

We choose who we want to be,

Me and you collectively,

Let’s remember what its like to be free,

Instead of plugging in and going to sleep,

Let’s witness Humanity’s Awakening
