A thought hoarder, that is. Information is, and has been, my obsession. Whoever said what you don’t know can’t hurt you, was wrong. Most of us live, are at least guided by, sometimes dictated by, information.
We consume it because we need it. Ask any parent, or diabetic.
“New” parenting advice, information on what’s the newest threat to children? Let us have it, regardless of the brain space it takes up ( and those who know me, know mine is limited), or the amount of time it takes to consume and process, or the emotional price it often carries. Like information for diabetics, guilt and worry are often the costs ( Two or more for the Price of One!)
How much of it though is needed, and necessary to be a good parent, or a diabetic with well-managed blood glucose?
How many think we need to de-clutterize and quit making the unimportant seem important, and quit taking for granted what’s really important?
