Tune In

As Mother Nature gave way to the sun, to shine the light of life, Ancient Joe slowly squinted open his eyes and rolled off the rocky floor of his cave. He had smartly made a campfire to keep him warm during the night. He strolled out of the narrow opening of his cave and leaped into another platform, towards broad daylight. He looked up to the skies to get a feel of the time - probably 7 am. That’s his version of ‘Hey Siri. what’s the time’?

As time passed and the sun arose, Ancient Joe gathered up a few neighboring cavemen for the next hunt. He looked up to the skies again. He looked to the east and to the west, heard the tweet of birds with closed eyes, glanced at the trees and leaves, at the clouds and then told his mates in cavemen language – “It may rain, if we start now we may be able to come back with food without getting wet.” As you would have figured out by now - that’s his version of ‘What’s the weather today’?

Ancient Joe is a random name; he is an ancient caveman. He is close to nature, and he trusts his instincts. If you are like me, you have lost most of the brilliance that he has.
