Slowly and steadily I am finding a new balance with social media. Less time on phone and more time with my thoughts, books and tv. I have this strongest urge to disconnect lately. Unlike earlier times, when I would go for a week or monthly long detox, today I feel the need to reduce the time I spend with screens all together and not temporarily.
I have almost started craving the time when the only way someone could get in touch with you was by booking a call in advance at a pre-decided time. An ideal mix for me would be emails which I can reply to whenever I decide, and operator run phone calls. I have been talking to my husband on how (and if!) we can go back to Nokia? It is not a passing thought. I have been marinating in it for a quite a few months.
For the first time in nine years, I had even considered quitting blogging (the jury is still out on it!) just to cut on my time on social media. So far I have compromised with myself to blog between one to three post, and/or only when my heart desires. Literally, burning my blog calendar to ashes.
I am happier outdoors. I am happier disconnected. I am happier when I share less. I am also happier when I block all the unnecessary outside noise.
Moving on to the outfit ... Rent The Runway has been my go for all fancy events. I cannot imagine spending a dime on something I will only wear once. Lately, I have been indulging in some weekend wear too. Y'know, why not? :) If you haven't tried it, I would highly recommend it.
