I miss my pre-internet brain

I miss my pre-internet brain. Before the days of constant connectivity and instant access to information, my mind was free to wander and explore in ways that seem almost foreign to me now. I remember a time when I would spend hours lost in thought, pondering the mysteries of the universe or simply daydreaming about the future. I would read books cover to cover, savoring every word and allowing my imagination to run wild with the possibilities they presented.

But now, with the internet at my fingertips, my attention span has been shortened, my ability to focus diminished. I find myself constantly checking my phone, scrolling through social media feeds, and clicking on endless links that lead me down rabbit holes of information overload. The endless stream of notifications and updates has left me feeling overwhelmed and distracted, unable to fully engage with the world around me.

I miss the simplicity of a time when I could sit quietly with my thoughts, without the constant buzz of technology vying for my attention. I miss the feeling of getting lost in a good book, without the temptation to check my email or browse the web. I miss the sense of wonder and curiosity that came with exploring the world without the aid of Google or Wikipedia.

I miss the days when my brain was free to wander and dream, without the constant bombardment of information and stimuli that the internet provides. I long for the peace and quiet of a time when I could truly disconnect and be present in the moment, without the constant need to be plugged in and connected to the digital world.
