Using computers makes multitasking a requirement.  Those of you who use computers regularly, know exactly what I am talking about.

Right now, as I write this, I have about 9 windows open, all for just the internet.  Does this sound like you?  However, it is not just computers which force themselves into our lives any more.  What about cell phones, and iPhones?  Beepers used to be an annoyance too, but not many people have them anymore.  Cell phones have pretty much replaced the beepers.

What is the purpose of having all of these devices?  Is it really good to be multitasking so much like this?  We have really forgotten how to “Smell the roses” and find pleasure in life.  I’m not talking about taking a vacation!  I’m talking about doing the simple things in life and being happy doing them.

For example, when is the last time you were happy about doing the dishes, or doing the laundry?  Most people find these things a chore to do, but honestly I love doing them when I do, and take great care in doing them, do you?  This is what I am talking about when I say “smell the roses”.  Take pride in what you do, care about what you do, even the small things.  If nothing else, it will take your mind away from the usual busy, hectic schedule you normally keep.
