We've come to rely on our phones for just about everything: emails, GPS, reminders, to-do lists, alarm, texts, social media updates, conference calls, picture taking, video recording, Siri..
I mean, the list goes on and on. I'm the first to admit that I'm always on my phone-
well most of the time... work related more than half the time-
but at times I wish life was much simpler without phones. We sometimes forget the littlest things like
how to pick up the phone to say "hi, i miss you" instead of texting it or we forget how to write
a nice handwritten letter or thank you note instead of expressing it via text or email.
Phones + technology can be addicting- trust I know; instagram? pinterest? texting much?- but I don't think we should lose touch with being in touch the ol' fashion way.
I know, I have a hard time remembering to stay off my phone when I'm with my loved ones while at dinner or enjoying a get together sometimes...but I've learned that enjoying that moment and giving
whoever you're with your full attention WITHOUT being on your phone, will be a memory you
won't forget...
so think about the next time you're out with friends, family, boyfriend or someone you care about and
try to NOT touch your phone once until you get home..
you'll remember that moment completely.

Sorry for the rambling- just thought of that when I was putting together this post. Real topic!
