Dishwashers wash dishes.
Cars detect blind spots.
Bill Pay makes sure we aren’t late.
Each of these automatic features can make life easier, but none of them make me obsolete.
I have to load the dishes in the dishwasher.
I have to push the start button and drive the car.
I have to set up Bill Pay and make sure there is money in the account, which requires that I work.
Automatic isn’t as automatic as we’d like, and that’s a good thing.
Stay engaged, and refuse to sit back and just let things happen.
