Communication at a Loss
Who would have ever thought that something so
simple as a conversation would put us in danger of extinction? Not something
many of us think about in this day in age with the brink of the technological
breakthroughs and a world at our finger
tips which should breed knowledge, power and a sense of oneness which really has left many of us lonely, distant and
detached from each other. Things move fast and as they do we ourselves are
slowly forgetting simple things such as family, friends, and just the simple
notion of kindness and manners. Beyond the logical reasoning, there is even more
to this. This might seem like a nostalgic memoir that connotes the end of an era
and the beginning of another, but the rule of thumb is simple. We're
talking about human evolution, and at this point, it's more of a
regression than a progression. The development of the internet, Iphones and whatever means of
technological communication in turn, has been developed to enhance our
communication, and our connection to the world, which is literally at our
fingertips. In the end, it leaves us imprisoned in our rooms, never taking the opportunity to see the outside world. Talk to someone online for hours, see them in
person or on the street, and never say a word to them. Basically where I’m
getting at exactly if our basic skills are reduced to rubble we might as well
cease to exist. The agenda has definitely been made clear, and at the end of the
day, the human word and the needs of communication and unity can be a danger to
many who are higher in power. In theory, I believe we are basically reliving the
Tower of Babel once more, the closer we are to unity and success the more our superiors fear us. The analogy, simply put, is the more scattered
and distant we are from each other, the more in control they are. The more the
human spirit is killed the more of advantage they have. Unity has nothing to do with language at all, if
the notions and the ideals are the same. Whatever the language, we can
all stand firm together. The more robotic you are, the easier it is to
control .So before you send that next text or email think about it for a
moment and go out and actually meet people instead of living in an artificial
world that really doesn’t exist.
