virtually
unlimited accessibility

is nothing to take for granted, i agree...
and
if i loved the fact that the city never slept,
well, the internet is a blessing for an insomniac looking
for anything,
let alone
for the esoteric, the imported, the out of print, the rare, etc.

my fear:
i know just
how little it takes for me now to sacrifice
once savored experiences, in favor of the "blessing"
of convenience.

i imagine i fear temptation
will displace memory at some point,
and i may not feel the sacrifice at all anymore.
but maybe not....
maybe not.
