EFFECTS OF LIVING ONLINE – STORY

I hung out at the bank with my dad for an hour because he needed to transfer some money.

I couldn’t resist and asked him, “Dad, why don’t we set up your online banking?”

He replied, “Why would I do that?”

I said, “Well, then you wouldn’t have to spend an hour here just to make a transfer. Plus, you could shop online. It would be so easy!”

I felt pretty excited about introducing him to the world of Internet banking.

He asked, “If I do this, won’t I have to stay home?”

I said, “Yes, absolutely!”

I told him that even food could be delivered right to your door now with online stores!

His response left me speechless.

He said, “Since I walked into this bank today, I’ve bumped into four friends and chatted with the staff who know me really well.”

“You know I’m alone, and this is the company I need. I enjoy dressing up and coming to the bank; I have plenty of time, and I crave that physical interaction.”

Two years ago, when I got sick, the owner of the fruit shop came to visit me and sat by my bed, crying.

When your mom fell during her morning walk a few days ago, our local grocery store owner saw her and immediately drove her home because he knows where I live.

Now, let me ask you: Would I get that ‘human’ touch if everything went online?

Why would I want everything handed to me and be forced to interact only with my computer?

I like meeting the people I’m dealing with, not just a ‘salesman.’ It builds real connections.

Does online stores offer that too?

“Technology isn’t life. Spend time with people, not devices.”

The world is suffering because conveniences have made people less active.

MY NOTE:

This is true. EFFECTS OF LIVING ONLINE is being felt by the people nowadays.

Nowadays, even the marriage invitations are sent thru online messaging like Whatsapp.

The people live in an artificial world without the feel of closeness.

Copy-Paste greetings, Good morning, etc. A single Good morning goes to 1000 friends.

No separate care and attention.  No understanding and No feeling.

Since the communications became easy, the relationships became weaker.

Let us care others IN PERSON spending time for our own circle of relatives and friends.
