Im the worlds worst when it comes to cell phones, and Ive began to acknowledge that. At church, Ive started passing around a basket, and those that want to are able to put their phones in it during service. Ive also turned off my notifications for every single app on my phone, so Im not looking at every snapchat, like, or comment. Why are we so focused on what everyone else is doing? Why do we care about what others are doing instead of what we could be doing if we just got off of our cell phones? I have 900 and something friends, but do I really? Whens the last time you talked to them? Whens the last time you talked to anybody? Not texted, or Facetimed, but TALKED. When is the last time a conversation did NOT include Hey, let me show you this video I saw., Did you see their status?, They posted this picture, you will love it. And we proceed to insert our phone yet again, into a personal conversation. This next week, were gonna go to family functions, and were gonna sit on our phones all day. Instead of enjoying our family, were going to like pictures of other peoples family, and have snapchat conversations of how miserable we are. Only to miss out on memories that people around you will never get to have. Its terrible that weve put getting likes on a picture over enjoying time with the people around. Talk to your family, enjoy their company. Most of the time, this is one of the few times a year youll see them anyway! Talk to them. Husbands and Wives, talk to each other!! Do you look at your spouse more than you look at your phone? Dont miss out on life. Facebook will be there in 2 hours, but that moment with a loved one could be your last one. Share this status with the hashtag #PutDownYourPhone! Enjoy whats around you this year, instead of whats on your phone!
