In truth, you should be angry about the status quo in America today.

You are likely checking your phone a couple of hundred times per day and spending more than five hours per day looking at the device. You probably check it within ten minutes of waking up and almost always have it with you on the toilet. You spend more time with your device than with anyone in your life.

You can blame this behavior on yourself, and you are responsible for your own decisions, of course. But you are also part of the epidemic of acute addiction that has befallen billions of other people, many of whom have lost their sense of life’s meaning.
