It's so aggravating to sit down to dinner with someone and they immediately break out their phone. Worse still is trying to cruise the grocery store and constantly having to avoid being run into by folks with phone blinders on. Most times they don't even look up or if they do look at you it is with ire in their eyes, which I find slightly amusing. I want to get my shit and get out, not be waylaid by phone zombies.
The photo is beautiful and a reminder of all we miss when we don't look closer. Folks gazing at their phones miss living, they are simply existing and consuming.
People seem to have lost their manners and feel, for some reason, that they can't go a minute without looking at their phone. Just on the phone-walkers in the supermarket (or anywhere else)...I don't move around them, I stand my ground, and if they look at me with ire in their eyes they soon change their tune when they look in mine; I'm intolerant of wankers.
I wonder where it'll all lead, the dumbing down of society I guess, the loss of connection, and other such negatives.
Those who are not aware of their surroundings will soon be led to slaughter. Hopefully humanity starts to look up more often.
I hope so, on both counts.
Me too
