Digitizing Meaning

Honestly, it is next to impossible to detach myself from my ‘digital’ reality and reflect on my earliest technology experiences. I think I tried around ten times to close my eyes and go back to the moment… But, what moment? Is it my first riding bike experience?? Is it my first owned car experience?? I am afraid that technological gadgets and mechanism are so embedded in my routine, so that I am not capable of visualizing my first moments of starting my technological era.

Vividly, I remember how I purchased my first vehicle. For me personally, this moment means millions of bikes, computers, or air travels! Literally, I realized that I just quested my thirst of becoming individual, endless attempts to prove that I was not a child anymore. It was my friend, my horse, my beat, and my inspiration. Before going to bed, I checked on my keys, and my car registration. I wanted to materialize the moment of becoming independent and responsible for my own property. At some point, I considered it to be my safe ground, my island, where I could dream and become wrong, laugh and become serious – but, surely, my robinJ. I could drive and release my wings!!

Reflecting upon this crucial experience I can confirm that technology seems not just ease our daily challenges or conquer our crazy chaos, on the contrary, we become spiritually stronger and emotionally richer.

Another memory that has been teasing me professionally conquers my mind at moments I start using online dictionary. When I prepared to enter my first university, I was reading tons of English texts, novels, and newspapers to enrich my learning experience in constructing my professional horizons. My first dictionary helped me enormously. How?? In various ways, I should be honest. For discovering a lexical meaning, I turned page after page to get the moment of light, the second of mental quest! Word after word – line by line, I was thinking that I am moving my mental furniture. I was sure that one day I would learn all of those words. In other words, I would be on the top of my professional mountain, on the linguistic Everest! Also, I trained my skills of being consistent and patient, critical and thoughtful.

This trip into my personal history inspires my to confess that various ways of digitalizing my reality help me to see my own ocean of ambitions and dreams. Now I understand that if I am critical and consistent, my technological use will energize me to live my life fruitfully and extensively.
