Technology

The Merriam-Webster dictionary's definition of tech·nol·o·gy is as follows:

1 a: the practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area : engineering 2 b: a capability given by the practical application of knowledge 2: a manner of accomplishing a task especially using technical processes, methods, or knowledge 3: the specialized aspects of a particular field of endeavor — tech·nol·o·gist \-jist\ noun

Dare I admit the definition alone boggles my mind? Technology. I know it's out there! I know it's important. But need I understand it? I mean, as long as something works, do I really care how it works? Can't I leave that to the "techinical" minds! We all have our areas of specialty. I know technology is not one of my specialties. But that's what makes life interesting. If we all shared all the same abilities, what fun would that be?

So, I'll continue to reap the benefits of all the latest technologies, and will try to keep up where I can, when the lessons are straightforward and geared to those of us who need a bit of guidance. But I won't be trying to learn the technicalities of how something works. As long as it works, that works for me!
