BLoG#4 Day of Unplugging: Write a Letter Friday, March 6 is Day of Unplugging "The National Day of Unplugging was created by Reboot, a nonprofit Jewish community that was originally established in 2003. However, you do not need to be Jewish, or even religious or American at all to participate. The idea behind the day was to challenge people to keep their electronic devices unplugged and unused for 24 hours in order to give themselves the chance to take a break and spend time relaxing with family, friends, or alone. This is definitely something that would be useful to everyone, regardless of religion or lack of it. Reboot believes that such time taken to “reboot” or systems will make us happier, more content with our lives, and more aware of the things that matter. Celebrating this day is quite simple. All that one is required to do is to disconnect from the virtual “matrix” which has come to define every waking moment of our lives." Unplug and give all your concentration to writing a medium length letter (about two pages, 8-9 inches long/20-22cm long) to your partner. Writing prompt 1) what interesting/beautiful or famous place do you or have you lived near that you did or do not visit? Writing prompt 2) pet bird story or bird observation Enclose a small bird-related tuck-in, send in a plain or decorated envelope (handmade envelope would be very nice!) seal it with a kiss and send.
