We may think about how we use it, but sometimes we simply never ask the important questions about if we should be using it at all. In fact, it's possible that we think it would be bad - a crime - a sin - not to have the same type of device that everyone else has! Not only should we carefully evaluate how we use these devices, we should evaluate the devices themselves. How are they changing us, and the world around us? Which changes are good, and which are bad?","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/cottrillcompass.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/heartmachine.png","thumbnail_width":500,"thumbnail_height":313}
