BeachFront Home Blog 17 Aug, 2026 I just had the realization that I spend more time facing my computer than family members, and now I feel haunted. This is really screwed up. Like really screwed up. I and they will get old and die, and right before, we will have to sit with the thought that we spent more time looking at a screen than each other's faces. Unless we make some sort of change. The worst part is that it wasn't like this 10 years ago. It's been a powerful force that's consumed the world. Slowly. So that you don't even notice it until it's normal and you're used to it. The forgetting of our past normal is one of the scariest parts. I'm not asking for practical advice. I know what I have to do. I'm just warning others that maybe they're doing the same thing without realizing it in this framing.
