Life Without Technology
We are living in world of technology.technology
is involved in every field of life.
The everyday lives of
people have changed a great deal due to the advent of technology. They have
become easier, faster, more comfortable and dynamic. But, at the same time, our
lives have become lethargic, preposterous and anti-social just like the
computers that have become a part and parcel of our lives. The technology has
enriched our lives and enlightened our minds, but in pursuit of its cozy
comforts, people tend to be over-reliant on it, so much that they can’t even
imagine living without it. This pointless obsession and abuse of technology in
our lives has left us vulnerable and weak. No doubt, the advancements brought
us unprecedented physical, medical and other benefits, but this over-reliance
will prove costly for the survival of the human race.
I have always wondered how life would be without the massive
technological inventions of today. Perhaps everyone wonders the same thing. We
are in the 21st century! Yeah, I am supposed to embrace technology, it's
something that is inborn, something that I found and cannot imagine my life
without. But what would I do without this precious gift? Life back in the day
would be a nightmare. Ideally, much of the paper will focus on how life would
be without technology by basing the argument on all spheres of life.
Nowadays, people cannot live without the any means of
communication -- laptops, smartphones, or tablets. If people from earlier times
collected stamps or coins then a wooden cover for iPhone will be perceived as a
desirable collectible item. Besides, what would become of our world if all
technological advances were gone? I think that our lives would be very
different. People would turn to reading books because it would be the one of
the only sources of knowledge. We would have to make an appointment in advance
with no possibility of canceling it on short notice. We would not be
overwhelmed by the flow of information from television or the Internet; we
would get it only from newspapers. Maybe our lives would be more difficult but
certainly not worse.
The current world is characterized by technological
advancement and digital migration. Technology plays an important role in making
the society a better place; therefore, I cannot imagine myself living without
technology. Technology takes various forms and 96% of people in the US use it daily. It has changed the way I visualize things globally since I
have enhanced interaction with people from various parts of the world. However,
I have realized that some regions are still lagging behind that it would be a
dream to have a smartphone. I cannot imagine how awful life would be without
any of these technological advances; the mere thought of spending an entire day
without a mobile phone is more than enough to give me nervous breakdown.
The advent of technology has transformed human lives by
increasing their quality of living; it has brought us together and closer to
each other in various ways but again drifts us apart in other ways. It brings
us together through instant communication, but made us further apart when
interacting face to face as some of the new generation have not developed the
art of conversation. Without it human lives would have been disconnected but
simpler, isolated and unimaginative.
My life would be very different without technology. I am
pretty sure I would go insane, because I cannot survive without technology.
However, it would be advantageous to me because life would become simple, there
would be no worries of having my account hacked or having worry of e-mails. On
the contrary, my world would become boring because getting in touch with
friends would become impossible. Really, life would just be different, not
good, but not exactly bad. It would just be different.
