Phones, tablets, computers, and laptops are all devices that you can buy. If they break, all you have to do is go to the store and buy another one. Devices can be brought anytime and anywhere. However, people can't be brought into our life again and again.

Everywhere we go we take our phones with us. It is a good and bad thing to do. We usually go on our phones to either avoid awkward situations or not to be bothered by anyone. How much we go on our phones has a big impact on the people directly close to us and further from us.

Social media has won. What I mean by this is that social media is so demanding that all we do is wait for its command. We are so apart of this generation that is way into social media.

We feel like we just have to always post on SnapChat, Facebook, twitter etc. But what we really need to do is take a step back. Start noticing how much you use your phones.

You can always buy a new phone. No matter how many times you break it or something happens a store is always around the corner. However, you can't buy people back into your life.

The goal of social media is to be so attentive to grab our attention. Social media is a platform in which we give too much attention to. It's like a demand that we follow just because everyone else is on there. We would feel uneasy and not normal to leave the platform of social media.

Each and every one of us has people in our lives. But the question is do we give those people in our life our time? Or do we just have people in life to go to when we feel bored and have no texts to reply to?

We are so committed to posting on our SnapChat, tweeting away, or posting on Instagram that we do often times ignore those who love us. We could create all these memories with people in our life yet we just say no and get back on to our phones. Phones can be brought but people cant be.

Times don't come again. Why waste precious moments recording on the cellphone? Why not live in the moment. Living in the moment is a moment that we won't regret and that can be deleted.

We easily delete meaningless texts, unneeded apps but we can't delete people in our life nor cant mute them. Take a minute and ask yourself what quality time have you spent with someone? The quality time that doesn't include you on the phone.

We claim were not addicted to social media yet some of us can't get enough of it. Ask yourself why is posting content on social media and trying to meet the demand so hard for me to quit?

Quit posting the demand and create your own path. Create a path in which not everything that happens in your life is out there in the open. Start by putting on do not disturb on your phone and have a conversation with those who were waiting to hear your voice. You have the choice to let loose of the demand or keep getting controlled.
