Last
two weeks, I went to Berjaya Times Square of course for shopping :P , but what
i wants to share is about the worst ever view that I had to see. There is about
3-4 years old boy, i think at level 5 of BTS tried to loose his body between
fingers of barriers that is to protect people from fall down. But of course it
cannot protect small size body of that child, as he already loose about half of
his body between the holes of bars, and its lucky there's someone noticed about
that situation and grab that child as soon she saw him. A father which is
actually just besides him even did not noticed his child is in dangerous
situation as he is so busy playing his phones. When he realized that after the
woman who help that child reprove his father, he is suddenly get angry and start to hit and scold his child continuously. Think logically, who should be blamed, a father who is neglect or his little child that even did not know how to think about the bad or good things? Oh its really sad that I needs to say this technological detachment is becoming today's reality.
Technology makes people think out of box but at the same time erode the interaction of humans. 10 years ago, communication is one of the needs between humans, face to face interaction, but nowadays it is not a needs anymore as people choose to communicate the people who are not exist more than they are communicated with people just besides them.
Instead, people spent far too much time on Facebook trying to catch up with their thousands "friends", most of them are rarely see.
Little by little, Internet and mobile technology seems to be subtly destroying the meaningfulness of interactions we have with others, disconnecting us from the world around us, and leading to an imminent sense of isolation in today's society. Instead of spending time in person who is just next to you, tell them your story, sharing the problems together, and instead see ear-splitting grin and smiling eyes of your beloved one, you choose to see a fake smiley-face emotion inside your phones.
Instead spending time with your beloved one that you have already know rarely meet with her, you are chatting with your other friends in front of her without even thinking that she has heart for you too take care. Instead happy and excited to see you, she have change her feels that it is good to not meet you because it is the same like she went out alone. Many spouse nowadays divorce because of third people exist between their relationship. A husband or wife can cheat with their partner easily and play with other woman behinds, chatting Whatsapp every night and treat them more than their own spouse.
Same like parents, teenagers nowadays are mostly love to hanging around their friends, even face to face with their beloved parents, the person who is actually should becomes an important existing human connection to us, not just someone whose disembodied text voice pops up on your cell phone, Ipad pr computer screen. It seems we have more extended connections than ever in this digital world, which can be great for networking, if it's used right. The sad fact of the matter is that most of us don't.
