The way people depend on their mobile devices amazes me more and more each day. For New Years my family went to Walt Disney World for six nights. We celebrated New Year’s Eve in the Magic Kingdom. Over my lifetime I have never seen a place as crowded before. In fact, there were so many people in front of Cinderella’s Castle, it was almost impossible to get through the crowd. What shocked me more than the size of the crowd was the number of people text messaging on New Year’s Eve vs. the traditional phone call. Around midnight the spectacular fireworks show began. As that show ended the mobile devices came out everywhere and the text messages started. I myself was even guilty of text messaging “Happy New Year”. I guess why tell someone “Happy New Year” when you can just text it to them?

I think my husband did that as well! Why get on the phone and get stuck on there when you can just do a simple text to say you were thinking of them and be done with it? LOL
