Silenced 🤫

Increasingly I find myself enjoying weekends away from the social media in places where I lack cell service and can listen to podcasts, read and write without the constant pull of social media.

Every time I head out to the mountains now, I deactivate my Facebook account to avoid the pings when I return to cell service. I also disable the mobile service to ensure that I get no emails or messages, lest I ping a cell tower somewhere in the woods.

While I bring my phone with me and use it for music and podcasts – and jotting down my thoughts, I like the respite from the internet.
