" SLAVES OF DIGITAL WORLD "

Are we slaves to the digital world?

Technology ,which was meant to improve our lives has now completely taken over it, so that we have now becomes it's slaves .There is no doubt ,it allows us to be smarter ,faster and better .I mean who doesnot have to access the world of information  in a couple of seconds,without having  to pur over thick ,dusty books .
Technology now brings a constant streams of information on our finger tips.It promotes efficiency and connect us to the world.

The digital slaves does not know how long he has been sitting there an hour , a day ,or month ? He shouts at whoever tries to interrupt his precious time with celebrity news ,games ,online friends .His attention span has decreased to less than a gold fish's he cannot  spend more than a few seconds on a single web page and he certainly cannot  concentrate on a real life .This is because his brain has been crafted to be best suited for life only with the help of computer.

Our little friend constantly procrastinates and as a result ,he has flunked school and isolated himself from people .he was once forced to attend a family re union ,he couldn't find his way to the venue because his navigational skills has been reduced to nothing without GPS.

Social media such as facebook ,twitter ,instagram  are the most used platforms on internet and by using them we becomes slaves .These social media's affect the family relations.

In this busy world  we all live in a nuclear family.There is a lack of communication between  parents and their children because of this social media network .We always keep mobile phone with us while eating and sleeping and  as a result will fall into digital relationships with unknown persons whom we  blindly trust and that will affect the family relation .

The websites can do what they want with our digital person .They can sell our data ,pictures ,whatever  we post to post whoever  they like and scariest  part is we can't stop them .Various psychological tricks are used  to predict or even control our every moves.

There has been a rise in clinics serving digital addicts which range from parents ,teachers and students .We readily become a race which lives in isolation with poor health and having diseases like arthritcs, headache ,weak  eyesight ,lots and lots of pyschological disorders.

So what can be done to stop this hyper connectivity ? To rehabilitate these digital slaves?

We have to bemore disciplined about our browsing habits .We need to normalize the way we act and think ,stop and restart ourselves we can be the ones in control of our time ,our data and our focus ,instead of these social media apps.

If we are too busy starting down  our screens ,we are going to miss out the things that matter most family ,friends ,society ,sweet  moments and above all our own life
