As quoted from the video’s description:
“You need not delete your social networks or destroy your cell phones, the message is simple, be balanced, be mindful, be present, be here.”

Makes a good point. I have lost a lot of friends I used to hang out with to the world of the internet. People I used to hang out with weekly, reduced to being lucky to see them within a few months+. Been on dates where the girl was more interested in her cell phone screen than the conversation.

This is why I hike, this is why I travel, this is why I try to drag my friends out and spend so much time with family, this is why I dream, this is why I try to chase those dreams and take a break from the digital world when possible. I enjoy the digital world, and agree that it will help us evolve technology-wise; but we can’t let go of what makes life most livable….the act of being able to share it with someone….in person.
