Have you ever imagined a life without technology?
I'm sure you know what I mean by that question, like have you imagined
- A life without data
- A life without electricity
- A life without phones, pc, television and even radios
- And of course a life without Blurt (blogging)
Before I get your answers at the comment section, my answer is a big NO, I can't live a life without technology so I can't imagine it. So I maybe the one asking such a question but I won't dare imagine such because I was born and brought up in the world of technology.
Even the thought of not being with my phone to write or call someone is scary to me, how can I survive such a life?
People in the past may have lived happily without all these present technology evolution but you can't compare back then to the present. Technology has taken over so many things concerning human life.
Some humans were blessed to use their brains to create great technologies, someone has to use them for it not to be a waste and that's what we are doing now. We appreciate their brain and hard work by using their different innovations. I'll say we're lucky to have great brains and more are being born, so I believe.
Recently while I was going through some updates, I read a post that got me wondering.
His first question
Can you imagine life without electronic devices?
Got a big NO from me, I don't know about you. Or maybe we could imagine such life and see that we don't want to live such a life.
But then he said something that is so true and is worth pondering on.
This technology thing has effected the humanity in negative as well as positive way but it is we who decides to be impacted in negative way.
We will all agree that there are negative effects of technology even while there are positive effects. But how we let these negative effects control us is what's scary to me. It's so obvious that we give most of our time to technology in one way or the other, what would the future be like if we let technology control us even more than we let it now? I don't want to imagine.
Someone said something about what some of us might be thinking now...
It is we who are destroying ourselves and not the technology, we don't have control on ourselves and we blame technology.
I remember blaming my dad for buying a phone for my brother because he didn't have time for studies anymore, that was me blaming technology forgetting that my brother was the one who allowed it to control him.
Sad as it may sound, we can't imagine a life without technology now but with the rate at which we're letting technology control us, can we imagine life with technology in the future? I'm hoping it won't be disastrous.
I'll wait for your contribution in the comment section, it will be very much appreciated and I'll make sure to reply every comment so write your view on this and let's learn from you.
Thanks for reading!!!
this is true, today we depend a lot on technology, and those who depend, we can not imagine a life without it, but the important thing here is not to let it control you, that you are the one who controls it and know how to use it well, of course it has its good and bad things like everything, but it's like you say, that depends on each person, and how they use it..greetings!
That's the truth, it is how the technology is being used that determines it's good and bad effect on us.
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate
My city was destructed by a big typhoon and it's been 3 months without technology meaning, no electricity. It was totally hard because most of the people now a days are dependent in technologies so it became a hassle to them. I had seen and realized a lot of great lessons after that calamity.
Oh dear! That is surely going to be hard... I've never experienced that and I hope I never do.
Hope you guys now have electricity now, thanks for stopping by
Thank God, we are now okay. It gave us an awareness about preparedness when calamities will occur such as what we experienced.
That is good to know
Enjoy your day dear
Life without technology is unimaginable for me especially now that I have many engagement online.
For me, I'm not really sure I can do without technology.
Exactly my dear, living without getting to engage with our online friends will be really difficult for most of us.
Thanks for stopping by 😊
I know how it feels without technology, I once stay in the rural part of Nigeria and no single technology and it was a terrible experience.
Yeah, it's a difficult situation... Hate to even imagine it
