Educated, Not Informed
This morning when I got up, I was looking for my phone before even I wiped off the beads of saliva dripping from one end of the lips. But if I sit back and recall, this isn't the scene of one morning. It is every single morning going on a loop since the day I got hands on smartphone. Random conversation over tea with friends disclosed that I wasn't the only one to start mornings like this. We all, in a way, have gotten used to it. Instead of taking a proper yawn and fetch newspaper from the porch, we all want to know how much the world changed in the last 8 hours or how our favourite celebrity woke up this morning. We have become so much consumed by social media platforms that we aren't aware of happenings around us. Well, Congratulations!! we have just initiated the process of going back to being the ape we used to be. But how did this happen, it was just some centuries that we realized we had transformed into humans and were really enjoying the perks of it. Ald
