Look Up

This video is so inspirational and I meant to post it a while back. You just have to watch. This is something that I've been telling my friends about recently. We are always on our phones and we miss out on a lot. We miss out on the way we look when we're laughing, the snorted way we giggle when a joke is told and whatever happened to old fashioned letters. I admit, I'm on my phone way more than I should be. Even in the pool, thanks to my lifeproof case. But I shouldn't be. I need to stop and smell the roses, look up into the sky and look at the shapes of clouds or count the stars. I want to see my friend when she tells me good news, not hear about it via text. The worst part is when you are sitting next to someone and you are texting each other instead of speaking. That is not the world I was raised in and that is not the world I want to be in. Yes technology will continue to move forward, but I want to run outside and play tag, have an hour of tv time, shower and bed like the good old days. As long as people realize that technology isn't your life, that there is more out there than video games and Facebook, the world will be open to new ideas and see life in all of its glory. Just look up!
