Phoneaholics!
May 21, 2014
It is real hard to practice being a more positive person in this house sometimes. I am starting to get real put off by the cell phone addiction we have going on here. I get up for breakfast and sit at the table and get closed out by a cell phone, last night at dinner, a cell phone is pulled out and checked while we are eating and talking. Like it couldn't wait until afterwards!
Ask a question, pull put the cell phone, watch a movie, pull out the cell phone. I say, put the cell phone away and interact with people, not electronics!
How can a little black square carry so much power for some people? I mean, if you get along with your cell phone better than with another human being you probably do need to spend less time with the electronic and start working on your people skills!
Sometimes I would love to take a sledge hammer and just do this.....! I know this is negative. It is also going to take some work to do this positive thing, especially when the people you are living with are not being very considerate about it.
I am trying to practice being a more positive person here but the people living here need to work WITH me and not against me.
Do I use my own cell phone? Of course I do but it would be the rare occasion to see me whip it out and start playing on it when I am engaging conversation with other people, unless I am time checking, I do that a lot.
I love my family dearly, I really do, I just want to spent time with them and not have to compete with a cell phone all the time......
In keeping fair with the phoneaholics, I WILL work on not being such a computeraholic! I admit to spending a lot of time on here, my family should be so lucky I can't carry this to the dinner table.
