"Digital insanity"

  1. Did you know that an average person spends 4 years of their life looking down at a cellphone? Kinda ironic ain't it? How these touch screens can make us lose touch.. But it's no wonder in a world filled with "i-macs, i-pads & i-phones" so many selfies, not enough US' and WE's, see that technology has made us more selfish & separate than ever. Because while it claims to connect us, connection has gotten no better. And let me express myself Mr. ZUCKERBERG not to be rude but you should reclassify Facebo*k to an antisocial network because while we may have big friends list so many of us are friendless and all alone because friendships are more broken than the screens on our very phones. We sit on our computers measuring selfworth by the number of followers and Likes and ignoring those who actually LOVE us. It seems that we would rather write an angry post than talk to someone who might actually hug us. Am I bugging? You tell me because I asked a friend the other day "Let's meet up face to face ". They said alright what time you wanna Skype? I responded with OMG and SRS and a bunch of SMH's and realized what about ME? Do we not have the patience to have CNVRSTN without ABBRVTN? This is the generation of media over stimulation, chats have been reduced to SNAPS, the news is a 6 second high speed video. And you wonder why A.D.D. is on the rise faster than 4gLTE but get a load of this, studies have shown that the attention span of an average adult today is 1 second lower than that of a goldfish. So if you're one of the few people that have continued to read this let me say congratulations! And let me finish by saying you do have a choice "YES" ..because this my friend you cannot AUTOCORRECT we must do it ourselves. Take control, be in control, make a decision. ME no longer do I want to spoil a precious moment by recording it with a phone. Im just going to keep them. I don't want to take a picture of my meals anymore Im just going to eat them.. I don't want the new APP, the new software or the new PIMD updates! Im so tired of performing in the pageantry of vanity and conforming to the acceptence of digital insanity. Call me crazy but I imagine a world where we smile when we have low battery power. Because that means we are one bar closer to humanity..... REALITY.
