I Bought an iPod to Escape My Phone (and It’s Working)

I recently bought an iPod to dissect any reason to pick up my phone. It surprisingly has surpassed my expectations of how beneficial, effective, and fun it would be to use one. I love this little thing and it feels more personalized than ever before because I hacked it with Rockbox. I’m simply just riffing in this video in hopes it sparks conversation or interest in those who have a quiet longing to disconnect and be more present and intentional.
