I have the Kindle app on my phone. My library has good books in it. Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, others.
The WordPress app is on my phone, too.
“The first thing to go is the reading” is something I was told early on. Maintaining a sound outlook requires daily maintenance, and reading daily is one of those maintenance steps. Skip the reading and you’re headed to hell. (Heaven and hell are states of mind.)
Self-remembering is the other thing needed to keep your mind on track. Look at it any way you want. The Fourth Way people have one way of describing the effort you take to awaken from your zombie slumber. Prayer is another word that can describe this effort to get out of your own brain to a higher level.
Writing these little things is a way for me, in the moment, to connect with something higher.
For that, my phone is a tool for healing and advancement. Imagine that I have access to ancient wisdom while waiting in line at the supermarket. What a blessing.
But the browser, the social media access, etc. available to me on the phone? Straight to hell. That’s why I have Freedom.to on my phone constantly. It’s like a safety on a gun.
