7. Story of my Life 🫂
Would you believe if I said that my phone has been harassing me? Like seriously! It wants to be held most of the time. Makes me scroll through Instagram or stroll through YouTube to play something while I begin to work. It even made me believe that it's my saviour from tough times, by keeping me occupied. I thought it helps me to go on about life but it has been a huge obstacle/distraction that keeps me from living my life.
I had been distancing from myself because I was on phone, writing down some entries, journaling, looking up life hacks etc.
My days were like this :
Phone: "Hey look someone had posted on Instagram!"
Me: checks it and then scroll down for more. And gets lost in it.
Phone: "Hey look up for this, that."
Me: Does exactly that.
Phone: "Use me, I know you don't have any other means to keep yourself occupied. If you don't use me, I'm sure you'll go on thinking rampage."
Me: " You're so right! Thanks for being in my life. You're awesome." And hangs out with my phone for most of the day.
I have been feeling too disturbed the recent days. And I found myself spending so much time on the phone. I began to read again, borrowed two books from library, Ikigai and Mexican Gothic.
As I read a lot, I'm able to realize what I'd been missing all the while and what had been plaguing me. It's my PHONE.
I feel a lot better after spending so much time with the books and other things. So, yeah! I'm half cured and released from the prison I'd put myself in. I'm even spending more time with myself.
I'm breaking up with you, PHONE. I mean I'll still use you as a phone and not as a PHONE. 😁
