I cant believe this 31 day challenge has taken me over two months and I STILL have not completed it!
Today's challenge was to put the phone down and live in the moment. And on our recent Spring Break trip to New York, that's EXACTLY what I did!
It’s easy to get caught up in our phones and our Facebook feeds and our online lives so much that we neglect our ACTUAL lives.. So I took a step away from my online life and focused on the life right in front of me. I resisted the urge to take the picture and post it for the world to see as much as possible and took actual pictures, with a camera!
Yes, the challenge was to take MENTAL pics but I'm 44 now, that image will be long forgotten in a few days.. a picture, however, will last a lifetime. What I did do was keep the phone in my purse, only to be looked at in the evening when I got back to my room. (Do you have any idea how long the battery lasts when you do that??) It was so incredibly liberating!
So much so that I think I want to do that EVERYDAY!
