48 days now without a cell phone and I can honestly say I have no desire to have a cell phone again. I do find two things challenging:
- Being picked up and picking people up at the airport
- Driving Directions
Though I must admit, not having GPS is forcing me to use part of my brain that has become inactive – sense of direction.
I am committed during this journey to not be “judgey,” but boy, am I sensitized to how often people are not fully present in conversations because they are on their phones. I realize that people do not mean to come off rude, but that is the effect. It telegraphs a message – you are not worthy of my full attention. Sorry if that sounds preachy, but….
