6.27.25: “GET MY PHONE!”

I don’t understand people who look at a beautiful view and immediately pull out their phone. I get wanting a photo, but it’s like they’re trying to own the moment instead of just living in it. You can’t capture awe in pixels. Some of the most unforgettable sunsets I’ve seen were never photographed, and that makes them feel even more mine. I’ll remember the smell of the ocean and the way the light hit the water, not how many likes the photo got. The best moments in life aren’t meant to be documented. They’re meant to be felt.
