It was epic. I did an amazing thing today. Something that I bet many people don’t do anymore. I wanted to take a nap-no that’s not the epic event, but my phone kept vibrating. 

So I turned it off. And it was…weird. 

Am I the only person whose smartphone has become an extra appendage that goes everywhere I go? In our hyper-connected, updated to the millisecond, what and who’s trending now world, cutting the cord felt strange. 

But I really wanted and needed a nap. Thirty minutes later, I quickly turned it back on. 

And the world didn’t fall apart.
