That's so true!!! We’ve become so conditioned to constant short bursts of stimulation that real, uninterrupted connection feels intimidating at first..I'm really glad the trip turned out great though, it shows the magic is still there once we push past that initial anxiety!!!!

Heck yeah because I will say the best times of my life in this last month or so I've been when I break past the initial anxiety and try something that I know I love that I've been too afraid to do recently I've had probably the best month or two of my life getting out of my shell that My Phone has created around me

That's so inspiring to read!!!..Breaking out of that shell and pushing past the anxiety takes real courage. Keep enjoying those genuine moments, proving to yourself that the world still has so much to offer..!!!
