@dr.sarah.malaki.ball: One of the loneliest experiences in marriage is sitting right beside the person you love and feeling like you no longer have their attention. Sometimes, the problem is not the distance between two people. It is the attention they no longer give each other. You are physically present, but your mind is somewhere else. Your spouse is trying to share a moment, start a conversation or simply enjoy your company, while your attention remains fixed on a screen. Technology is not the enemy of marriage. But when your phone repeatedly receives the attention, curiosity and engagement your partner longs for, something important can slowly disappear: emotional connection. Your spouse should not have to compete with notifications for your attention. Try something simple today. Put the phones away for a while. Ask each other about your day. Listen without interruption. Make eye contact. Be genuinely present. Because intimacy is not only about sharing a home or a bed. It is also about making someone feel that, even in a crowded world, they still have your attention. When was the last time you put your phone down just to be fully present with your spouse? Mind, Marriage & Faith with Dr. Sarah. #DrSarah #kenyantiktok🇰🇪 #fyp #MarriageAdvice #DigitalDisconnection
