FOMO


FOMO
(Fear of missing out)

FEAR(?)

Your over use of that damn smartphone is making you into a stressed out idiot.

The thing is If you carry a “smart” phone with you everywhere you go to avoid FOMO
your screwed AND your truly creating the worst kind of FOMO.
Your missing out on YOUR life!

Without margins the words just run together.

Before the “smartphone”we humans had breathers.
Time between events. Margins.
Time to shift gears, reflect, think. create, ponder, refresh…single task, BE present,
occasionally interact with those around us in a meaningful way.

The breathers-Replaced by staring at the “screen” (FOMO)
-Waiting in a line of ANY length (anywhere)
-The supermarket (its line OR aisles)
-Bathroom (sad but true)
-Restaurant (waiting to be seated AND during the meal)
-Driving (you WILL taste AIRBAG if you continue)
-While out with a friend for coffee (rude)
-Funerals (the only one relaxed is the one you came to honor)
-Walking your dog (GOTTA stare at the screen)
-Exercising (Need the app)  ..NEED…
-Planes, trains, & automobiles. (there is no sanity)

On top of zero down time the overuse of the smartphone provides the fact remains your
human and you simply cannot be where you are and “somewhere else”at the same time with out paying a price.
Those Feelings of stress & anxiety are the bodies way to say ENOUGH of this!
but most shove a rag in the mouth of the way we feel with a “pill” for anxiety….and continue to Facebook driven by Fear
FOMO.

Sad shit really.
