Just think….for so many people, their world has just shrunk to the size of an iPad….or a phone! So sad….
Please be careful when using your devices that you don’t run into things or people, or cars….
Sigh….It really is sad when people’s gadgets can take over their lives…
A friend of mine is so attached to her phone, she sleeps with it, and goes to the toilet with it. Last week, she accidentally dropped it in, and it was ruined! But, the worst was that all her photos, and documents and so much information was all kept on that phone…devastation!
She luckily was able to have it rescued by some clever techies who suggested she store her info on iCloud…so she would never completely lose it again…phew! Crisis averted!
But, none of this should have occurred in the first place…
When I was a child, there was only one phone in the house if you were lucky, and if you wanted a personal conversation, it was kinda held in front of everyone else…not much privacy back then, and parents and siblings were interested in all your comings and goings. Now, we all have phones, even very young ones….just in case….and we seem more distant…this is true….
Please don’t lose sight of yourself by continually looking into a screen, instead of really participating in the world.
Perhaps we really should turn them off now and then, and go outside and run on the grass, or look up into the sky at night to count the stars…now, wouldn’t THAT be something!
Hugs to All,
