Episode 3916: Allison Carmen reflects on how digital distractions quietly fracture our most meaningful connections, even in shared physical spaces.

Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.allisoncarmen.com/is-there-anything-more-important-than-giving-our-attention-to-the-people-we-are-with-in-this-moment/ Quotes to ponder: "All of these electronic distractions created a gap between all of us that was never there before." "Being in the NOW, we are present to give and receive the true gift of life, LOVE." "If we can make NOW the most important moment, and the person we are with the most important person, and what we are doing the most important thing, we will be led to more meaningful and fulfilling lives with one another."
