When was the last time you took a hike? I think I might be happiest when hiking. In a socially connected world where hashtag research is a thing, our phones are extensions of our hands, and screen time is the frenemy we can’t live without, it’s a relief to put the phone away because I need both hands to scramble up a muddy trail (sometimes with only a rope between me and a 20 foot drop!). ⛰⛰⛰⛰🏔 I’ve always had a hate-need-hate relationship with Instagram. It’s how bloggers make the big bucks, but I’ve never been able to get the number of followers to make that a reality. I keep hearing from successful Instagrammers that I need to be true to myself to find true success, but that’s objectively untrue—if I want to succeed at Instagram, I have to play the game. And I’m simply not willing to put the tome and effort into playing the game. I was not good at high school, and I am not good at Instagram. Same-same. 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 Instagram has started rolling out this “hiding likes” thing, but I have no idea what that means. Bloggers and influencers are freaking out about it. But really, when there’s beauty like Hawaii in the world, who cares how many people “like”, “follow”, or “friend” me? Steve and I took a much-needed trip to paradise (O’ahu) over the weekend, and all we did was hike, eat, and go to the beach. And we were happy! We had some heart-to heart talks, we cried, we took pictures of each other, we marveled at the beauty. We disconnected to reconnect, and we had a wonderful time! When was the last time you put away your phone to use both hands to take a hike?
