We live in the day where text messages trumps a simple phone call or a personal visit. I mean seriously once upon a time if you wanted to talk to someone you went to there house and had a conversation. A real conversation, not the one where one person is talking and the other is texting or playing on their phone.
I’ve always been an outgoing person, loved to travel and do shit but for some reason for years I didn’t do much sat at home a lot. BLAHHHHH BORINNNNGGGGGG! I was the person that would speak to random people just to see what type of reaction I would get, it was fun to see the responses. I believe that is the reason I have been going out and doing the things I have been doing lately, just to get that person to person interaction. Meet someone new and have a conversation, experience the same places but with a different view because now I am paying attention to the surroundings without technology being a distraction. Enjoying the moments for what they are, good or bad, doesn’t matter.
When you talk to someone pay attention to what they say, their mannerism, body language, it tells you so much more about what they are trying to say and how they feel. GOOOODDDD OLLLEEE INTERACTION. Drifting back to the old school way of communication, it’s sooooo impersonal today. I’ve been feeling this way about this subject for a while, mentioned it before as well but still get sucked back into the habit of texting vs calling, playing on the phone in a room full of people instead of holding a conversation with them etc etc. ! Awful habit but I will break it eventually. REALLLLYYY???????? Most people before they even thank God for another day, get the crust out their eyes, or take care of that stank breath are checking their phones to see whats going on their timelines!! The link I attached sums it up beautifully. Click on the words Look up at the top and have a listen!!!!!
What would you do without Facebook, instagram, any social media, internet access or cell phone?
