Feeling Philosophical



In the 21st century , even in the many advances we have made as far as our civilization is concerned we are quite lacking. Humans in this very delicate period in history are too conflicting. More than ever now I believe you can see a clear divide between the old and new, the new being the right way and the old being the wrong way. However this is not true, many things of old have faded with the passing of time and are still very relevant today, however us being how we are we like things that are shiny, we like new. Now this may just come across as random rambling however there is sense in what i'm saying, think about it. 5 years ago kids would watch t.v and then go to the park. They would enjoy meeting new people , the social interactions would intrigue their young minds. How bout now? the most social interaction they get is from facebook, whatsapp, instagram. If they dont need to leave their homes they wont, why because everything is easy to access. Friends? Internet, Games? internet, movies? internet, sports? internet. Now im not saying the internet is a bad thing, but i fear my kids will never know the joy of going to the park and playing power rangers with 4 kids youve never met and then wanting to go back every day. why? because they'll rather play ben 10 on the ipad, or watch a movie by themselves. who needs friends when you have a tablet and the internet.
