The Sunny Side of Life Without A Phone

There’s a dark and a troubled side of life
There’s a bright and a sunny side, too
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
The sunny side we also may view.

Keep on the Sunny Side
Lyrics by Ada Blenkhorn

———————-

I’ve had some bad luck in the past year. 

I broke my leg.

All my emails were erased. 

And most recently, I lost my phone in London. 

But every time something bad happens, something good also happens. 

After my emails were erased, I started to backup all my accounts, courses, passwords, emails… everything; my online world is now secure.

After I broke my leg, I started to go to the gym: I now have 7kg more muscle. 

And after losing my phone…? 

The Sunny Side of Life Without A Phone

I don’t know what anyone is doing.

Unless we’re in the same room or on a Zoom call together, I don’t know what anyone is doing.

Are people on vacation at the beach?

Complaining about the world?

Photographing their food?

Probably.

But I don’t know about it.

The result is, I’m in the present.

It’s a nice change.

I can recommend it.
