MOBILE: THE BEAST

21th Century, human, the most understanding animal in the universe, is no more. He has turned to the animal. With the help of technologies, he has made some luxurious things for their comfort. Let us talk about Mobile, the most used 6 letter word in the 21st century. In view of 21st century  Mobile is everything. It is like the oxygen.  People check their phone 150 times a day.  From the moment we wake up, it is like we are jacked into this environment. We check mobile most of the time that no alert, no notifications.It is coming from the head and telling us that “I have not checked my twitter account in a while, Facebook for a while ….” 

That starts to make us anxious and eventually our goal to get rid of that anxiety, so we check in. We feel stress when we can not reach our phone or when our battery is about to die, you probably know this feeling. Steve Jobs revolutionized the entire world with the I phone and he never let his children use it. Do you know why?  Only because he did not want his children to depend on technologies. People are sitting on a table in a restaurant, not talking with each other because they are using mobile, texting with other. Now -a- day a child is born online. People even don’t go shopping, they buy online food, medicine, clothes everything that wants. Mobile makes us lazy.  In a family, they all are sitting in a drawing room but even they don’t talk …. 

All are busy with their mobile. More than 2 billion people in the world on Facebook and they all the time checking their account hoping they may have any notifications. 

 Now a teenager is photoshopping their selfie because as a member of society we are telling them that you are not good enough. If we feed the beast that beast will destroy us, we have enough time to reconsider it. So if we push back on it, we have a chance to control it. Never ever let your mobile and social media control you. Misinformation , mistruth, discourage all are spreading through the social media, which is totally valueless.
