Some Thinking on History

What starts me thinking on all these different things? Writing to people all over the world. They make me reach beyond what I know currently to learn more. They give me a glimpse into the rest of world, places I have not been to, differences of culture, how they see, hear and feel about different things. It may be about what kind of morning hot drink they or I have, or world events that shake the foundation of what we know as a species. Sometimes, it starts with: I’ll be the first to tell you I am not a fan of Google. I have really never been a fan of theirs, as I hate that I am the product, which means every keystroke, every bit of data, everything about myself is theirs to sell.
