Hello everyone, i am sure most of you will be thinking that staying without a phone will not be great deal, anyone can manage that. Not using a phone for a day will not only save you from weird people in your contact list, but also provide you with immense PEACE OF MIND.
Ummmmm to a point i don't agree, yes you read it correct i don't believe staying without a phone is really a good idea. My this post might help you understand why i am saying this...
I woke up in the morning and as usual the first thing i saw was a shared post on Facebook by friend which says "No phone a day is a great way to bring peace of mind".. ummm okay so let me try today. The very moment i switched off my phone and thought to myself that no matter how this day is going to turn but there will be lot of peace in mind at night..
So here i start.. everything looked relaxed.. i went to gym that morning without my phone.. and yes it was an amazing workout. I thought to myself that i am going great and i could see few percentage of PEACE already coming in. I went back and heard my mom shouting and i was like whaaaaaattttt and whyyyyy.. she thought where i left early morning without my phone when she was in really bad need to drive her to metro station. Okayyyy well just one incident can't stop me gaing my peace of mind back.. So after this little yelling i got ready for my work. While i was getting ready i forgot i don't have to use my phone, so no CAB, i will be using a public transport.. and yes i boarded the metro. It took 2 hours for me to reach office. When i entered office, i saw my boss with a red bulging eyes which clearly wasn't very welcoming early morning. He shouted at me because he was trying to connect with me and my phone was off. He thought i am absconding from work.. but why? i love my job.. phewww i told him my battery died. But there were many times when i was eating my lunch or out to take few breaks between work when he tried my phone and got pissed. I thought to myself that my poor boss doesn't really understand the concept of mental peace, i was grinning to myself that i will have peace at the end of the day and you my boss.. you will have NOTHING..
The day passed like this, all through out the day was thinking about my boyfriend that i should tell him that i am okay and doing good.. but i thought let's just disconnect with him for a day and see what happens. Sharp at 5:00 pm i got a call from my reception that one gentleman is here to see you and i wondered who it could be. It turned out to be a shock for me to see my boyfriend.
He looked angry.. angry doesn't even count. He grabbed my hand and said "What the fuck you think you are" and i was like ummm my peace my peace where are you. I explained him that i am trying to stay away from my phone for a day and he thought i need some help. He thought either someone is stalking me or i am trying to avoid him.
Well that was not the reason but how to tell him. He said you better switch on your phone or we are breaking up right NOW! OMG noooo i don't want that, absolutely no breaking up with this guy whom i love being with. I thought fuck my PEACE.. i'll find it some other day. I switched on my phone and saw texts messages, voice messages from friends and family. They thought i am in some PROBLEM.
When i explained them why i did that, there was i clear statement from their end that 'Babe you need some medical help'.
The day passed away and i was laughing on all the incidents which took place through out the day. I understood that my peace is not about staying away from my phone and not talking to people i have in my life. My peace is all about people who belong to me. It's about my family and friends, who care for me too much.
You may come across various good quotes about how being away from people can help your mental growth, but that's not the case. We live in a society where a person belongs to other person. There's no individual who can grow alone without talking. The mode of communication can be different; it can be via phone calls, messages or direct conversations. But we love that, yes we do.
So i don't know if you got any sense from my post, but who cares.. take out your phone and talk..talk to people who care about you..
