NEXT Call

Not the last call

The number of actual phone calls most of us make has decreased considerably. Alternately, others forms of contact have increased. The history of phone calls includes special little chairs that also held the attached-to-the-house phone, party lines and often desired princess varieties. The best hack was ordering the extra-long cord that permitted walking around the room while talking. Obviously, times have changed. Unattached phones get lost at times so maybe the cord wasn’t the worst part of the deal. Updating a method of social interaction usually takes time and time moves swiftly. But there are reasons to make a phone call because a text doesn’t cut it. Emergencies are definitely times for real calls. Annoying calls to certain municipal entities that include lengthy holds with poor music are the real reason that speakers are used on cells. But the most important use of a phone is that call to an important person in your life. Actually hearing the voice of a parent or family member may be the most impressive use of an everyday smartphone. It is literally the task that makes a phone smart. Humans love to connect. Easy connections for everyday use can be useful. Let this be the takeaway from this post. And call your Mom.

Dial up

Option #1: When was the last time you made a call?

Option #2: Do you like your voice?

Option #3: Who can you call today?

That’s it. After you choose the option that best describes your phone use, take a few minutes to describe why you chose that option and what action, if any, may come next.
