Be intentional with your online presence. We are physical beings in the end.

i have been on a journey to untangle my tasks from my iPhone.
i'd be out in the world someplace, pull out my phone for something as menial as checking the time, or as well intentioned as capturing the moment in a pic, and immediately get sucked into texts and instagram™️ and all the virtual things happening in this tiny lil demon light box.
the goal: pull my phone out of my bag ONLY for phone things. that's texting, calling, and apps that can't be replaced
the solutions so far:
🕰️ i started with a watch (shoutout Casio) and i wear it every day. once I broke the habit of checking my phone for the time, I felt legitimately freed from something Major
📷 I bought a small digital camera to leave in my bag. the pics look better and I don’t get distracted by the virtual world when I'm trying to capture something in the now
📚 I bought a kindle. It fits in my jacket pocket (literally) and gives me something to do when I'm on the train or waiting for an appointment that isn't scrolling
I just realized so much of the time I spent on my phone was not intentional. It was a thing I was doing in between Other intentional moments. my screen time is still several hours a day (don’t get me wrong) but I think my brain has healed at least 3%.

The internet before was just a place you could visit, a physical location: your computer. Now that our computers lay in our pcokets all day, the internet is constantly chasing us, and we simply take the bait and escape reality any chance we get. It's true reality can be dark and dastardly but it can be a breath of fresh air too. As of today I am limiting all social media to my computer and using my phone for my true passions like art and reading.
P.S. children shouldnt have phones, don't raise them how quarantine raised you.

I’m recommending this as a reminder to myself. To find my worth outside of my phone, within myself. <3

The pettiness of humans optimised- whether it’s familial feuds or thwarted lovers, sometimes these manifest into these amazing cool houses. I’m obsessed with the stories behind these houses!

Not a big crier in films. But this, yeah this gets me every time!
Shaggy: A sacrifice? Dude, that's not a good thing, Scoob, I'm sorry I yelled at you. And I'm sorry I haven't been a very good friend since we got here. But listen to me, bro, you gotta trust me now.
Scooby: You don't trust me.
Shaggy: I do trust you, Scoob. Now, look. Who's your best buddy?
Scooby: Shaggy.
Scooby: That's right! And who's my best buddy in the world?
Scooby: Scooby-Doo?
Shaggy: That's right! You are. And we're like two trippy peas in a far-out pod, man. And best buddies trust each other. So let's do what we do best: Let's run out of here screaming in fear like two lunatics, okay? On the count of... Let's make it five. One. Two. Scoob!
