Great post Phunky. Admittedly, I noticed your lack of presence this week. I think this is a very important post. Time away from the screen, being present in the present moment, wherever that might be, is sound advice. For the past three years, we've travelled to Oldshoremore, Scotland (well worth searching on google maps, and zooming out for perspective). Alongside the stunning beauty, and sandy beaches, my favourite thing about it is there is no anything signal. Nothing. Although forced detox, it is always welcome. Thanks for reminding me, we need to plan this years trip.

Love this! Had a deep conversation with my wife about this topic as well. It is very important to take time off the screen and appreciate what is most important in life: meaningful relationships.

Thank you for this incredibly great post and message. You are awesome 🫂

Now you’re living the life of your parents! We didn’t have the distractions of cell phones and social media. While today’s advancements have helped in many ways, the ways our generation enjoyed our friends and being outdoors with them , and family dinners where we enjoyed discussions with our parents all make what I like to call” the good old days. It’s sad to see younger people glued to their phones, not enjoying nature and staying inside just texting instead of having meaningful conversations with friends and family, and enjoying riding bikes or walking to each others’ homes.

Its what we all need. The addiction is definitely real. I often catch myself staring at my phone while i was supposed to play with my daughter. Then i feel bad for letting the discord/twitter FOMO overcome the FOMO of her growing up... its a wicked spiral

Love this, Ryan. Beautiful pictures and it looks like you had amazing weather! With anything we pump time into it's so important to step back every now and again. Heck, even creative efforts benefit - our brains are better when we feed them different things.
