Greetings Earthlings!
(T.G.I.F.) Thank God It’s Freeday.
The month of September 2011 has been a fruitful one with even less effort than in the prior month of August, so to continue on with this process, I decided to close of the month on a solid yet enlighteningly simple note.

This month marks the point of large scale change and progression in the arena and industry that has been affectionately labeled as Social Media, and along with it, the age old question of privacy and the demand for it has also increased along with a decline in the supply of it.

 

What we will do for the sake of this discussion is simply FALL BACK to the beginning of this best selling book to offer what I believe to be the most authentic and accurate description as to the subject of inadequacy and the need for privacy as it is in this
New Age of Information, and since one of the most popular technology companies on the planet actually borrows its brand symbolism from this story and book, we can venture together to see if it also provides some additional insight and accurate representations of what is unfolding according to the script and current storyline.

 

Genesis Chapter 3 : Verse 6 – 11

3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.

3:9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?

3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.

3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

 

Moral of the story?
For the complete version of the script and subsequent scenes, I invite you to visit www.bible.cc, an extremely valuable resource for information on matters involving human existence.

In regards to the above stated, while there are many perspectives on this popular ideological and allegorical drama, I see it as a simple case of cause and effect as the need to cover up evidently stemmed from the feeling of nakedness, which to the best of my understanding is actually synonymous with inadequacy (naked) creating a subsequent need for privacy (hiding), and as a bonus point of insight, I would be willing to wager a claim that most if not any parent is to varying degrees familiar with the scenario of having foreknowledge of a child’s wrong doing simply through the observation of their behaviors which reflect some form of an attempt to cover up, often referred to as a what?
You’ve guessed correctly.
A Guilty Conscience.

To good health in the month of October 2011 and beyond as a different perspective to consider.
