Curse of a generation

At one of my daughter's birthday parties I noticed that all of the girls were on their cell phones. No one was talking to anyone there, only to those who weren't. I commented to one of them, "This is the curse of your generation. You are so busy telling someone what you are doing, that you aren't actually doing anything at all."

She didn't get it.

When I am taking pictures, people often have the same sentiment. But I'm so glad to have reminders of the occasion. But I can't forget to enjoy while I'm there! :)

That's an interesting observation. I wonder how often that happens ...

I guess I can see why some people would want to be on the phone all the time. But UGH! It's not for me. Have to blog more thoughts about this.
