Twit inside out or outside in ?

Social network can rob me of intrinsic motivations. I am in reaction mode again. To news. To comments. To my friends , rather distant (read 'irrelevant') acquaintance , photo comment ... what a 'noise'!

I can recapture my thoughts in silence. The network is largely about noise again. I can make noise, make no mistake! But I am not going to Twitter ripples when life is about tidal waves.

The social network is the closest virtual cocktail party most idle gossipers ever get to. And by definition a social EXtrinsic veneer to gloss over an otherwise unalarming life.
Take it away ... and I can hear my own breathing again. I get to be alone. With myself. It's not good enough. I need the noise ... click. To the next stimulant from the big plastic outside. I am moving again. In reaction mode. I need no inertia. I just go with the flow. The noise takes me. I have nothing else.

Or do I ?
Is there ?

What if I wait in the silence? Will It find me? And what, no who, will I find there? Who am there ? Am i?

Only the silence will know. GO there. And then ...

Tweet , LinkIn, comment... who cares. But this time its you. Not the Noise.
Your motivation is Intrinsic.
