Who is wise? He that learns from all men

I’ve been sitting here for the past few hours, few days, few weeks, months and years, surfing the net, reading blogs, watching home made videos, art, wikis...and i feel so overwhelmed.
There is so much brilliance and talent out there.
So many intelligent people with interesting things to say.
So many creative people.

I know this is a terrible thing to say but it kind of depresses me, I feel so inadequate. I feel so lost in a monstrous sea of information.
So much information!
I want to know it all; I want to understand it all, i want to be able to do it all.
I keep jumping from topic to topic, reading and learning and thinking and questioning.
By the time I get off the computer, my head is buzzing with a chaotic whirlwind of information.
The more I read the smaller and more insignificant I feel.
Surfing the net seems to have to same impact on my intellectual and creative self esteem as going through fashion magazines.
At first I’m fascinated by what I find, intrigued by all the stuff I don’t know, impressed by the beauty.. but slowly it starts to overwhelm me. Every link I click on draws me away from my original question and creates a whole new set.

By the time I lay my head on my pillow my head is saturated with uncertainties and questions.
What started out as a quest to enrich my mind and establish some control over my surroundings, ends up causing me insecurity - i realize how little I know and how much there is to know. What starts out as a creative curiosity ends up discouraging me. The wealth of beauty and information that is produced by others overwhelms me. I cant write as well, draw as well, think as well. I know I shouldn’t compare myself, but I cant help feeling mediocre compared to what’s out there, I cant help but feel that I am so not prepared for dealing for this madness of a world I live in.
In addition to making me feel insecure about my abilities and how much I know, this overload of information makes my feel insecure about my existence. All the negativity, the wars, the abuse, the pain and suffering, the catastrophes, the near-catastrophes.. not only do I get off the computer feeling like I don’t know an iota of what I should know, but in addition I feel that we are on the brink of every disaster imaginable.

I’m not quite sure i understand the internet ban, I wonder if the rabbis are aware of this problem, but sometimes I wish I had the strength to ban the internet for myself.

I miss those days when I didn’t know how much there was to know.

Sounds ignorant and lazy?
