There is a lot of pressure on young people from their peers to use their social media to showcase incredible things they get to experience.

This means that people aren’t living or savoring the moment. Check out why the alternative doesn’t even matter.

Everyone loves to have their phone out to capture every moment.

People don’t even get to experience the moment for themselves because they’re watching it through their phone or making sure everything is in frame the whole time.

So imagine your phone doesn’t exist.

Leave your phone in your pocket, and enjoy the moment.
