We spend a lot of time on our phones, and there’s an understandable anxiety around this. What is all this screen time doing to us? To our ability to connect? These are valid questions, but rather than immediately dismissing the time we spend on phones - what if we look at it with tenderness? What can it teach us about how we connect and what we value? What can these small, palm-sized universes teach us about ourselves?
