Did you know the average person spends 4 years of his life looking down at his cell phone?
Did you know the average person spends 4 years of his life looking down at his cell phone?
Kind of ironic,
ain't it?
How these touch-screens can make us lose touch
. But it's no wonder in
a world filled with
iMac’s, iPads and iPhones
. So many "i"’s, so many
selfies, not enough "us"'s and "we"’s
. See Technology has
made us more selfish and separate than ever
. Cause while it claims to connect
us, connection has gotten no better
. And let me must express first
...Mr
Zuckerberg, not to be rude but you should re-classify Facebook to what it is:
An
anti-social network.
Cause while we may have big friend lists
. So many of us are
friendless, all alone
. Cause friendships and more broken than the screens on our
very phones
. We sit at home on our computers measuring self worth by numbers of
followers and Likes
. Ignoring those who actually love us
. It seems we’d rather
write an angry post
than talk to someone who might actually hug us
. Am I
bugging? You tell me...
I asked a friend the other day lets meet up face to
face
. He said alright, what time you wanna Skype?
I responded with omg, srs,
and then a bunch of smh's
. And realized what about me?
Do I not have the
patience to have conversation without abbreviation?
This is the generation of
media over stimulation.
Chats have been reduced to snaps
. The news is 140
characters
. Videos are 6 seconds at high speed
A¨
and you wonder why ADD is on the
rise faster than 4G LTE
. But, get a load of this
. Studies show the attention span
of the average adult today
is one second lower than that of a gold fish
. So if,
you're one of the few people or aquatic animals that have yet to click off or
close this video, congratulations
.
Let me finish by saying you do have a choice,
yes.
But this one my friends we cannot Auto-Correct - we must do it ourselves.
Take
control or be controlled, make a decision.
Me?
No longer do I want to spoil a
precious moment by recording it with a phone
. I'm just gonna keep them
. I don’t
wanna take a picture of all my meals anymore - I 'm just gonna eat them.
I don't
want the new app, the new software, or the new update.
And If I wanna post an
old photo of myself who says I have to wait until Thursday.
I'm so tired of
performing in the pageantry of vanity.
And conforming to this accepted form of
digital insanity
. Call me crazy but, I imagine a world where we smile when we
have low batteries.
Cause that will mean we'll be one bar closer - to humanity.
