Advent with Aleteia #jour 13: earn 20 minutes a day to love in deeds
Every day of Advent, Aleteia offers you to become a disciple of Christ by renewing your heart in a more loving heart. Today, Aleteia invites you to spend less time on your smartphone and reuse these precious minutes to express your love to your loved ones.
The French spend an average of 1 hour and a third time on the internet every day, according to Mediametry data. And it's not just to check the information, read Aleteia or buy a train ticket... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, It is social networks that turn out to be the most time-consuming activity. "Social networks, which become the first activity on the Internet, account for 1/5 of the time spent on the Internet," Mediametry analyses. According to our calculations, the French spend about 20 minutes a day on Facebook, Snapchat, Insta and company.
20 minutes! Largely time to make a cake for those you love, to play a game of small horses or to read a story to your child, to have a real quality time with your spouse, to call your grandparents... Do your own calculation, ladle or very precisely, with apps like ActionDash, Space, BreakFree or QualityTime that allow you to carefully track the number of hours spent on the Internet. So you'll know how many minutes you can give your loved ones instead of letting them slip by looking at the profiles of your friends. It may not be a simple chocolate cake that you will make them but outright an opera (60 minutes of preparation)!
In short, the idea is to disconnect to reconnect with those around us. To use this time to show them signs of affection. A goal that really gives meaning to this "digital detox". Juliette Lachenal, a psychologist who has made smartphone addiction a specialty, stresses the importance of finding meaning in less Use of the Internet: "Ask yourself the question: what do you gain if you use your smartphone less? This will make sense of your approach." To love better, and to show it through deeds, is a magnificent, meaningful one.
