A Life Without Technology
Over a million years ago, people surround themselves with the traditional
way of living, without the help of today’s technology. People don’t have much
technology to communicate with loved ones. They use telegrams for an example,
typewriters, telephone or letters, for them to find out if they are doing well, to
share them the good things or bad things they may have encountered. People are
much focused on doing stuff in a natural way. You can see children playing
outside their house rather than sitting and barely doing nothing. Fathers enjoying
playing with their children, mothers busy doing the household chores – together
with their daughters. You can see the natural happiness they get by being simply
living their lives. By depending on their selves. It was back then, the healthy
society of the past era. A society in which there is an actual relationship of people
that interacts with people. Students determined to finish their studies. But as the
time goes by, we get upgrade over and over, we easily adapt to these changes.
We depend to these changes– that we are becoming less of a human. In today’s
times, technology has helped us in so many ways. It helped us by gaining more
confidence, more knowledge, increased one’s productivity in doing work, help
people find others common interests, create new things and so on. But as what I
have mentioned from above it has also affected our social interest, psychological
intellect, and others.
As a teenager, I usually use social networks as a way of interacting with

other people, to fit in, to communicate with loved ones and to reconnect with old
friends, as well as getting updates from national or international news. As a
student, this helped me a lot with my studies, in managing up with my left behind
notes, in searching for a more substantial news and documentaries to heighten
my capability and understanding about life and etc.
In today’s society we can see people that are being so hooked with their
mobile phones and they use it as an ease to their boredom, to entertain
themselves, to escape reality even for a while, to gather information and even
worse is that they depend so much with this. People that should be praying when
having problems, but now are ranting and posting their personal problems in a
social application. Grandparents that should be resting and enjoying their adult
life with their grandchildren are being abandoned by their children. You can see
parents that are being so workaholic, in order for them to feed their children yet
sometimes they tend to forget the true essence of having family. Students, who
instead of getting busy with their school works, are rather than getting busy of
enjoying night-life without realizing the sacrifices that their parents have yearned
for them. Guys who were gentleman back then but now are full of arrogancy. You
can see a teenager girl, carrying a baby around her arms, instead of carrying a
diploma. Children that should be eating healthy foods, and having the best of
their lives, are doing the contrary.
A lot of thing has changed. Everything has really changed. Scary how this
happen in a span of minute. At my young age, I am so sad to witness how fast
society has evolved and how fast it can affect one’s mind – that one lie can end
someone’s life, one mistake can break someone’s stake, one sadness can be
someone’s happiness. Society has a great impact with our lives because we are
surrounded and being connected to people. To be able to live your life you must
be able to live with it, on the way it flows to your soul. But despite of this, I
believe that the way you see life depends on how we really see it, that if you
allow too much negativity intake it will not lead you to positivity. It may have
changed, it may have put us in danger, it may have taken everything from us. We
should alway never forget the true beauty of its realness - of life, of our world.
Because what we are enjoying right now may slowly fade away and it will never
bring back what it has taken.
