Webbed and Entanglement!!!
Today's generation initiate their day with internet and ends with internet. They do good morning to their cells or tabs first and good night to be same property. They sleep, carry on pockets all the time, play, talk, and do many such verbs with their intimate part of their life which have become so inseparable. I am not your forefather or an old generation fellow to criticize your way of living. I am also a victim of getting webbed and entangled in the daily package of internet not only to fulfill my necessities but to digest my food like many of you.
We human beings claim to bring new scientific breakthroughs and technological advancements every single day but who cares about how we are using it. We have narrowed our minds which needs to be broadened bu entangling in a box like cells, tabs, laptops or whatever new technology you have in a wrong manner. We don't care how we look before office but our selfies need to be perfect, though hundreds of them are deleted to select a one that is able to cross many more likes and comments than your friend who had uploaded yesterday! We used to take a tour to enjoy it has become a site to take selfies and photos to be uploaded whatever be the beauty of that place.
We all are surrounded by social media platforms, actually we have become it's slaves...

'Friend in need is a friend indeed' this definition has changed now. Whoever sends us request and we accept to pass the omnipotent time doing chat are out friend. What rubbish! Though we have nothing worthy to do but an internal desire forcibly whispers you to log in everyday, even every hour. We can't face a person in real life but we poke them in Facebook. We do chat every time with a person but we even don't say hello and simply twitch our head while meeting them. Oh! what a virtual world that we are living in.
Yes, we are entangled, entangled in the chains of virtuality. Who cares about searching or googling our homeworks or any academic related work because we are getting webbed and we are misusing the technology. A man saw another man colliding with a bike who was lying with bruised leg in the middle of the road. Instead of helping him he captured and uploaded in YouTube. Where's our humanity? How selfies we are! It is so as we are living in the world of show off like a football which is hard, leathery outside and nothing inside, just air! We really don't care how we are doing everyday but we get updated with good for nothing gossips of celebrities in twitter. We, the modern guys know many thing but it seems we know nothing.
The biggest problem with us is that we have a lot of bigger problems. We have enjoyed a lot through internet but we are ignoring those underlying mysteries of poverty, corruption, illiteracy, murder, social crimes etc. existing on the corners. We are misguided in a virtual world. It is said, if not ironic, that we today's people have forgotten the essence of doing something worthy. Studying has become the most boring thing to do. Caring about our future has become worthless planning.
I don't mean we should throw if we mistakenly cut our finger while cutting the vegetable. I don't mean from today only lets say good bye to internet. I just mean let's respect science. I has created these things to create wonderful minds. Let's live in real world not a fake, virtual one. We the future constructor, lets make 'We' in ourselves and 'I' in every person. Yes we should log in, do twist, do google but to maintain ourselves competent, an ideal person and also sometimes to refresh in the middle of some boring work. Change begins with us. Lets change the dismal road of despair with no rays to a delighted path. Whatever i mean is, lets not get webbed and let's not get entangled.
Thank you for your time!
