Smart Phone Storm
The internet has become so big so powerful and pointless
that for some people it’s a complete substitute for life
----Andrew Brown
This has become a common problem in everyone’s life .
The use of this technology should have been made limited in
bringing you closer to a person far from you …. But it’s taking you away from
your near ones
Born and brought up in that era where we used to look
forward to free moments, to spend with family but not anymore, these days we
hardly cherish such priceless moments , rather we make it a point to be in
constant touch with the Digital world
Technology is that queer thing that brings great gifts with
one hand but slowly stabs you in the back with the other hand … Carrie Snow
We have become so addicted to our smart phones these days
that even a single second without it feels like a Year
Why and when did all of this happen and it happened so
quickly and so fast that we didn’t get time to set any boundaries to the use
Endless on-bed conversations between couples have been
replaced with unlimited scrolling of social media apps, getting connected with
digital world, seeking approval or appreciation from those whom we hardly know
Internet / Technology / Smart phones have become
barriers between people and between relations, we have somehow become so
convinced that checking alerts or notifications are of supreme importance
irrespective of time, place or situation
Somewhere all along the way we have forgotten our real
life, emotions, real happiness and priorities.
We are not realising that our obsession with this monster
is eating up our relations, resulting in making our family feel unwanted which
as a result is pushing them away
Why do we feel traumatic in a mobile free zone? We have
it wrong all this while, ideally we should be happy and relish, rejoice and
seize such moments.
As a practice, we should all make it a point to keep phones
out of our lives once home and with family , after all they have all the right
in the world on us . But yes , Emergency calls , they do demand our time and
this classification you need to decide
Make yourself available to your real world by making
yourself unavailable to the digital world.
