Are we missing the big picture?

Politics, technology, business, psychology, science, are few of my interests. (Yes, I'm a very curious person who wants to know more and learn more). How do I satisfy my crave? I'm always "connected" to the Internet. In my mind, this is a good thing, since it keeps me informed all the time of what is happening around me. This I believe helps me to be a more "rounded" person by understanding how the world around me think and work.

The question that occurred to me is "am I distracted by all what is happening around me?". The answer is simply yes!

Questions like, why were we born in this life? and what is the purpose of our life? started swirling in my head. I stepped back and thought about my life for a second. In the process, i figured out that I need to do more of this "stepping back". Being too indulged in this life makes us lose the sense of where we are? and what should we be doing?

Learning:

1) Step back, reflect on your life, and change course if necessary

2) Don't indulge your self in this life as you will get more distracted from the path you've drawn to your self.
