Hello friends, I hope you are well and have a successful week. May you meet your goals and objectives.
This time I come with a theme that I think involves all of us today, "TECHNOLOGY ".
Do you think it has brought us together or has distanced us?
I know it's a pretty trite and common topic but it's still important, to become aware of what is really necessary in our lives is fundamental. And a cell phone is not, it certainly helps us with many daily activities, but we can live peacefully without them, now, do we want to?
Have we ever stopped to think about the hours we spend on technology, our cell phones or video games? I suppose not, if we didn't realize that we have made our lives revolve around these devices, and in a certain way instead of evolving we have involuted.
Why? Because in a way we are slaves to them, most people cannot go an hour without their phone or computer, without being in the middle of social networks, without taking a selfie, without answering a message, that's the sad reality.
Certainly today technology is part of many people's lives because of the pandemic situation we are experiencing, in my case I currently work from home and spend much of the day sitting at the computer, but for work reasons. Many people decided to experiment with this digital world due to the loss of their jobs and it is valid, we must take advantage of what we have in sight for our benefit.
However, many forget about the QUALITY TIME, yes, that time we share with our family or that we simply dedicate to ourselves, to our personal growth, to our rest, to enjoy life, to read a good book, to share a pleasant moment with your friends or simply to enjoy a little bit of solitude.
Many of us have been brought closer to our loved ones especially in these times of so much immigration as is my case, but it is also true that many have been alienated, many couples and large families have been abandoned for this reason, the family union has been fractured.
Obviously, in my opinion, it depends on each person's thinking, on the maturity of the family, on what is elemental for one, young people are very manipulable and can easily fall into this type of action, but an adult for me would have no excuses.
What do you think? Has technology also affected your quality time?
Thanks a lot for reading me! :)
This topic has a wide range to discuss...
I think the problem is not the technology.. Technology is advancing day by day.. it helps to our works... It easy our works.. And also SAVE OUR TIME... No???
But lot of people don't know how to use it... They trust the technological bonds and forget family , friends , their duties 😶
Agreed 💯
Good topic 🤗

Yes, we definitely spend a lot of time immersed in the technology of cell phones or computers, and many times we do not spend time with the family, but since I am working at home I think that despite being immersed in technology, I have much more time to share with my two daughters and my wife, now since the pandemic began I have a year without being able to see my brothers and my biological mother, however this same technology of online communication has allowed me to make video calls and share even sing birthdays to my daughters or nephews.

Hi @franyeligonzalez, about your question:
Do you think it has brought us together or has distanced us?
I particularly think that the dependence that society has developed towards telephones is so great that it has reached the point of hindering communication and understanding, I have two cases that I can cite:
A couple of students were not complying with the corrections requested on their degree thesis because they were only limited to reading the observations from their smartphone, the problem is that these teams are not yet autonomous enough as a computer, and what they had to "watch" their corrections they just couldn't see it on their phone because the apps aren't good enough for it. They almost missed the chance to graduate for such a simple and silly thing.
A colleague in one of the companies where I provide services complains about the time she wastes trying to download files from her phone to transfer it to her tablet or PC because the internet is intermittent and she wants to do all her work from her smartphone; I told him to simply use the computer cable to download the same as a pen drive, he refused because "the internet is everything"?
What is the point? The problem is that there is an extreme dependence that has developed in current generations and also in those generations that were born without technology, I exclude myself because I always try to stay at the forefront without falling into excesses, I know the worst "tech monster" I treat him with respect and the necessary distance.
Very good that you have rescued this issue, I consider it appropriate.

It all depends on the person's point of view. For many, technology has distanced them from others as they become so immersed in it that they forget the people around them and prefer to spend much more time in front of a screen than socializing with other people, but for others it is a way to get closer to their friends and family and more because of the pandemic.

Good reflection, I think the key point is to take advantage to share with the family, as you well describe it, if this does not happen, the time we invest making use of technology, will be only unused time in our lives.

Seriously, I get really concerned about how technology is getting the best of our relationship's , we just have to get smart enough to bridge the gap.

Technology is just a tool. Technology is what we make of it.
It has never distanced anyone, because it can't: there are however people who misuse technology and distance themselves from others. It's not technology's fault.
On the other hand, technology today allows people to be closer in ways that were never possible before: I can witness it first hand as I am working in a foreign country, my family is 1000Km away, and my parents and relatives are more than 2000Km away, I can see them and chat with them every time I want, wherever I need, thanks to technology. And that is just a small example.
