Let’s see… why not just date or be with who we love without technology? Why not send a real letter with perfume touch? Why not be real instead of virtual? Just love, just hug, just kiss and that will be just enough, I think ๐
haha, I don’t even own a smartphone. I feel like I’m in a meme whenever I’m out in public and everyone is staring at theirs!! I can’t believe how disconnected they are from real life.
Coucou mon Amie , Ami
Et bien si nous dessinions un rรชve
Il faudrait qu’il soit beau bien entendu
Il faudrait qu’il soit doux, cela va de soi
Il faudrait qu’il donne envie, ce serait l’essentiel
Il faudrait que ses couleurs soient merveilleuses, c’est รฉvident
Si, cette rรฉalitรฉ, nous la faisions belle et douce
Pleine d’envie et remplie de couleurs merveilleuses
Si nous la copions sur nos rรชves
Alors nous ressemblerions ร des gens heureux
C’est avec ce petit รฉcris que je viens
Te souhaiter une belle semaine de douceur et que le soleil soit au rendez-vous dans ta demeure
Bisous

Your work is delightful. What a truism. I have yet to figure out what is so important that you can’t wait to get home to call or text. Who knew that the elimination of the phone booth would create such an issue.
I have watched mothers walking with their children, but texting or talking or checking social media. Really? Be present with the people sitting right in front of you. There is always time to connect with your phone later. The world you live via your phone will still be there. They probably didn’t miss you much. Most people are focused on themselves. I’m not a cynic, really. I just observe.
Great comment. My phone didn’t really break. In fact I don’t even have an iPhone, (it’s an Android lol). This is just commentary on what I see around me.
Hi! Just had time to look around more at some of your work and it’s great, I really like it. I like your sense of humor, and undeniably there is a Shel Silverstein/Roald Dahl feel to it but I love that, I love them, and you make it similar, but different. So much here I like, but when you really hit it you are just really talented imo. Thanks for sharing.
Will do. You have great artwork and it can have a definite effect on people. The language of the soul is elicited through emotions, laughter being a key aspect of the positive states. Again, thank you for this post.
Hi. Happy Tuesday. Love this! Thanks for sharing. In humour is found the truth of the state of society today. Have reblogged. Have a wonderful phone-less peaceful day. Best regards. Goff
You’re certainly doomed to fade away lmao…
Actually, this is so funny and relate able. We are so dependent on technology now, I would be having the exact same anxieties.

Agreed. It is a very psychological thing with our brains. We are all trained to the sights and sounds of a phone like Pavlovโs dogs.
