This morning, I noticed the above interesting title and article from sister Cindy Colley's blog. What in the world is "phubbing" you ask?
Sister Colley explains:
"A neologism, by definition, is a newly invented word and one of the newest terms emerging this week in English is “phubbing”. To phub (from two words: “phone and snub”) is to give attention to your phone when you should be paying attention to a significant other…say, maybe your husband. To “phub up” a relationship is to damage or destroy it due to ignoring important aspects like conversation while you scroll or communicate with others via that hand-held device."
See the rest of sister Colley's good article here
Beloved, it would behoove us (both women and men) to heed the wisdom contained in her advice regarding the proper use of our digital devices while interacting with other folks.
