Phone addiction - No Solution for that - Only a discussion

Phone addiction is real and can wreck relationships

Google - My spouse can't get off of his phone onto google. You will be surprised by the number of hits for that particular sentence. Men and Women are complaining about their spouses spending more time with lovey Iphone, Sexy Samsung and Cheeky Sony than them.

So what is the solution to that particular problem?
Well, there is no magic pill to end an addiction to a phone.

The conversation around phone addiction shall not be about looking for a solution. 

It should be about humanity and its relationship with technology and other human beings. 

We have to find a consensus on what is the role of technology in our lives and if they are detrimental to our progress, we should question their existence and/or their features. Personally, if technology incites division, isolation, addiction, argument, dispute and possibly hatred, well bin it.

In the search of who we are - Have a wonderful year 2015

Steven Spielberg and Cyril Cusack are having a conversation at a New Year's eve party. An anonymous is sitting next to them.  Spielberg starts: ' All of us every single year, we're a different person. I don't think we're the same person all our lives ' .  'Indeed' replied Cyril Cusack 'i f you ask me for my New Year Resolution, it will be to find out who I am.'   That being said the anonymous declares:  'I wish you to not try to find who you are. The search is like following a shadow in the grey, you will never catch it. So just be - the light erasing any shadow of doubts in your mind. Be the sun painting new landscapes of beauty and adventures, be the moon sculpting your dreams and highest aspirations.'   Happy New Year
