A Note About My E-Mail Responsiveness Habit and Practice

(P.S. A HABIT AND PRACTICE WHICH SUITS ME PERFECTLY!)

It is standard for me to take as many as five or six days to check my e-mail account (sometimes, as many weeks!).

Note also that it is natural and civilized for me to take another two, three or four days (or even more) days to ponder, reflect and ponder a little more to formulate a clear (occasionally concise) response.  All depending, naturally, on the topic and sense of urgency.  

The kind of life I wish to lead is distinctly different from today's culture of immediacy and the resulting fragmentation of time (which is sadly tolerated by the mass of humans).


REFLECT ON THIS A MOMENT

"A message sent is not necessarily a message delivered."  

If you believe your message (whether e-mail, text or via Canada Post) has gone astray, been blocked, or is urgent and/or time sensitive, best get in touch another way.  

A recipient can never know what they don't know.  Put another way: sending e-mails is entirely 100% owned by the sender because "assumption of delivery" and "delivered" are not the same.
