Episode 4092: Josie Michelle Davis shares a funny yet thought-provoking story about an unexpected encounter with a chatty hiker that becomes a reminder of how easily technology can pull our attention away from the beauty right in front of us. Through humor and self-reflection, she encourages us to enjoy the present moment, disconnect when it matters, and appreciate the experiences we might otherwise miss. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://josiemichelledavis.com/blog/2019/01/18/2019-1-17-kfbuxno36o6nmsvwsgeipm9a1kpac1/ Quotes to ponder: "I mostly find rain storms charming and even calming, and was perfectly happy to stand with my husbands arms wrapped around me, watching the rain until it slowed." "I did what I always do in awkward social situations, and promptly pretended I’m deaf and mute and have no way of communicating with other humans, so I might as well just face the opposite direction and watch the rain some more and hope you don’t insist on talking to me." "I am not someone who thinks technology is evil, quite the opposite in fact." Episode references: Epcot: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/destinations/epcot/ Learn more about your ad choices.
