Few years ago, I tripped over a curb while reading Twitter on my phone, fell into a hole full of big rocks, nearly broke my hand and almost landed on my dog.

Unfortunately, it did not cure me of reading my phone. I just don't walk the dog while doing it anymore.

I think he was being a bit sarcastic and knows full well the story of Saul in Acts 9:1-31.

My phone is mostly used for 2 factor authentication and playing podcasts in the car on trips

With 3 corrective eye surgeries, double vision, diminished depth perception, glasses with prisms/transition bifocals...and idiot drivers screaming thru our neighborhood...I don’t distract myself with electronic devices while walking the dog (not that I don’t want too). I’ve also learned to “roll out” of a fall, LOL. All they being said, they still let me drive!

Glad you weathered your fall OK. Stay safe!
