Information Technology Sucks- Day 23

I am addicted to information. I want to know as much as I can about every subject. Google is my most trusted friend. I planned our entire wedding through google on an island we had never been to. I will not eat anything, stay anywhere, or plan anything without a thorough google search. Reviews are the only way to know the truth....or is it?
Lately I have been re-thinking my love for information. It is too easy to read a review on why a hotel sucks because they do not have in room coffee or why a person hated the waiter and gave a one star to an amazing restaurant. I seriously freak myself out with horrible online statistics of stories about death, airplane crashes, and the worst- case scenarios. I think my love for information has taken away a lot of spontaneity in my life.
I have learned very quick that the statistics are not always right and that ANYTHING can happen. I live so much of my life through other peoples experiences and advice. I am giving that up. Today I am creating my own experience!
