WELCOME TO THE 21ST CENTURY!

Ever passing day I feel a sense of dehumanization happening to me and around me. The flood of technology seems to be  overflowing every passing day making a home for robots and crushing the shelter of humans. Quite similar to the previous scenario when men cleared out forests to make homes but now it's men clearing homes to make factories. The newspaper articles about anxiety and obsession with mobile phone, talks and debates about their negative effects and medical consequences just irritate me to the brim. If everyone knows what bad it's doing, why can't it just stop? I’ll take my very own example; my interaction with my family is excessively less. My eye to eye contact with everyone is minute and my inquisitiveness to dig into the depth of emotional problems have gone down. Slowly, I feel that me, or rather anyone of the 21^st century is no more the way they have imagined to be. Our ambition are not ambitious anymore- they are materialistic. Our goal is to earn in dollars and not to achieve happiness and our achievement is to show others what luxuries we provide to our family but not give them the nurturing love. YES, welcome to the 21^st century!
