No phone

If you read yesterday’s Blog you know that my phone is toast. All day today I was reminded that I am presently in a state of high addiction to my smart phone. It was almost like I had lost my ability to see or hear or walk. It seemed like I was just part of a person, that part of me had been amputated. It is fairly embarrassing to even write such an admission for you all to read. I try and live my life as a strong person, but as I suffered major withdrawals today I felt rather wimpy and weak. I have been telling myself all day, “it’s OK, it is just a great tool for helping to stay organized, get a lot done, and communicate to people”. Sort of like having your car break down in the middle of a long trip to Texas. It would be a real bummer to have walk that far. OK, I am addicted to food as well, and I fast for a day or even up to a week periodically to show myself who is boss. I think maybe I should periodically fast from using my smart phone to prove to myself that I can function successfully without it, and do so without crying!!
