Life is full of distractions, and with the added technology, it is very easy to be pulled in many different directions at one time.  I thought I was doing good, paying attention to where attention was due.

Well, until I saw this video:

And that is when I saw myself in many of those situations.  Especially when it came to my time with my daughter.  I felt ashamed, I have a precious few hours each day to spend with my daughter, with my husband, with my friends.  So why was I looking at the phone.  Was I really going to miss something that important?

Now, I am trying really hard to put the phone down and leave it – in the other room, in my purse, away from the moment.

After all, if it is really that important, the person will find a way to get a hold of me.

I am sorry Stella, Michael, my family and friends, for the times you are trying to tell me something important and I am looking at my phone. I will try to do better. You are more important, you deserve 100% of my attention all the time.
