As
I started to think about my favorite websites to visit, I was stuck. I never
realized that I have been taking it for granted the wealth of information now
available to society due to the internet. I am 41 years old. Yes, I can tell
people that I was an adult before the internet was invented and easily
accessible to everyone.
The internet has become this wonderful place of
information available twenty four hours a day. I feel fortunate to be able to
do so much research at home. I teach wellness care to health care professionals’
part time. It is important to have access to medical data bases 24 hours a day.

I can stay in my pyjamas and access a
wealth of information about health, seminars and various topics without ever
leaving my home. I feel blessed that I can work in the middle of the night if I
am unable to sleep. Time is never wasted.
Yes, we do have a lot of technology
available to us and we have to learn how to turn it off sometimes and tune into
our environment. We see people everywhere who can’t stop talking on their cell
phones. Our present day lifestyle has caused us to be comfortable with have so
much easy access to people and information. Everyone has a website. I can Google
any topic and find a seminar relating to that topic.
It
is so hard to decide which website is my favorite to visit. I visit so many
quite often. I have narrowed it down to Amazon as my favorite site. I love
Amazon because of the fact that I can buy just about everything I need. A lot of the individual sites that I like do have a store on Amazon. I
am able to have my payment information in one place instead of posting my
personal information on several sites which increases the risk of my personal
information being hacked.
I
love Amazon the most because it has made it possible for so many people to not
only buy goods but also has allowed the same access for an individual to sell
products to the masses. I personally know of several people who have made a
wonderful income from selling products on Amazon.
Amazon has helped many people
to stay financially afloat in hard economic times. Many people have learned how
to work for themselves and have found great reward in self-employment because
of Amazon.
Amazon
is a blessing to authors. Especially indie authors. I feel blessed that I can
self-publish a book and be able to have a market like Amazon that reaches the
masses in several countries.
Many indie authors are making a living selling
their books which is a dream come true. So many authors have tried to go the
traditional publishing route only to be rejected over and over. Some authors
have done so well on Amazon, which has made publishing companies take a second look
at their work and they have been offered book deals with large sign on bonus. Amazon
has leveled the writing field for both traditional published and indie authors.
If
I had to pick a second website I would pick Facebook because it has allowed me
to find old friends and to stay in touch with my family. Let’s face it that it
is impossible to have time to call everyone and have an individual conversation
which each person that we care about.

Another
great thing about Facebook is that individuals and companies can have a
business page which increases the opportunity to reach more people around the
world. I have benefitted from having a Facebook page. It has routed people back
to my website www.drdonnalee.com. More people have been
visiting my website and reading my blogs.
I love blogging about personal and
spiritual growth issues. I enjoy writing about the topics that affect us on a
daily basis. I blog about every issue from relationships to boundaries.
Facebook has expanded my business and my exposure to people who did not know
that I existed.
When
I think of my favorite websites, I think about the site has more than one
benefit for people who use it. Amazon and Facebook have done so much for so
many people in so many ways. I feel grateful to live in a time that has allowed
me to live a convenient life.
The Spirituality Trap - Dr. Donna Lee
The search for happiness and peace leads us down many paths.
Often the path of spirituality is taken in order to seek healing and the ability to find relief from our problems. The key is to remain true to ourselves and to never lose compassion for our self and others.
Happiness is not achieved by denial of emotional pain but through finding balance with the good and the bad that comes with our life's journey.
