Furniture for Sale Near Me - A Critique on Cellphones

Finding Furniture Locally

I don't intend to get on a soapbox or anything with regards to my thoughts on cellphones. I can't tell you how many times my cell phone has bailed me out of trouble. The trouble that would have been much harder to handle back in the days before this convenient technology. There is no way you can deny that the ability to contact help from practically anywhere is a huge boon in this day in age. Recollections of how things used to be not so long ago hep to put in perspective how useful having a cell phone can be. From car trouble to sending mail, we are all connected so much closer than we ever have been before. 

Interestingly, the tool that can connect us seems to disconnect us, as well. How many times have you had to tell your kids to put their devices down? What about how many times you have to ask your partner for help with something? Now, think to yourself about how often someone has to repeat themselves when talking to you because you were distracted by your phone. In my house, we have a set of rules that are half-heartedly obeyed and enforced with regards to using personal electronic devices. 

I used to be draconian in enforcing the rules with my kids until I realized that I was breaking them as often, if not more than they were doing. I also feel like doing things have changed with this technological advent. What I mean by "doing things" is that normal mundane things like driving, shopping, and even reading have changed so much that without a phone, I feel like I am not as good at it as I once was. I no longer remember people's phone numbers and I wonder if I could drive using a paper map like before. The other thing I have noticed is that people seem more preoccupied with their phone than what is going on around them. Even shopping is different since you can get what you need to be delivered at a push of a button.
