Do more things that make you forget you have a phone… they said.
…And they were right.
There isn’t much presence that comes from being on a phone.
Except maybe when you’re having a great conversation.
But, that feels to me to be more of the exception than the norm in today’s world.
Phones are a modern day escape.
And there’s nothing wrong with escapes. I know I sure need them every now and again.
But, when you’re escaping for excessively large chunks of time throughout your day… it begs the question…
…What are you trying to escape from?
And how can you begin the process of reversing that trend so that your reality—your life—becomes a thing you don’t need to escape from?
P.s. You might notice some differences in how you get these posts emailed to you—my old email provider retired its service while I was at Burning Man. So please bear with me as I get everything migrated over and updated to a new service in the mean time. Thank you :)
