Instead of checking how many likes we have on Facebook or Instagram, we neglect to check on our neighbor. With this in mind, ours and future generations should empathize the value of each other's presence and focus less on our phones. Otherwise, we will lose touch with our reality and our relationships will suffer.

We focus a significant amount of our times checking Instagram, Facebook or other social medias. What we have failed to recognize is the importance of each other's company and the importance of optimizing the bond in front of us over dinner or any other meal time.
