Modern Technology
(Syed Ali Mehdi, karachi)
Invention of science, modern
technology and various technical gadgets like cell phones, laptops, i-phones, i-pads,
palm-tops and desktops have made life easier, comfortable and convenient
especially to the youths. We may not be able to dream a day without using these
gadgets. Yes, these wonderful instruments have brought in so much of comforts
for us as most of air aspirations, jobs and needs are fulfilled by them in a
fraction of a minute. SMS, Facebook, chats have opened a new world before us and
we connect to each other so aggressively!!
Friends a mute question to be answered is whether these gadgets are used in the
right way, for the right purpose and in right direction?
Our consciousness should say and admit the answer ?no?. our mobiles are for
casual chats and endless phone calls. Our computers are usually used for
accessing social networking sites and for playing games. This will not lead us
anywhere except an instant enjoyment and continued frustration.
The right way of using them is to our sences. Our long- cherished goals in life.
These gadgets are treasure of knowledge. What our elders missed is in their
generation, we are blessed with. We can use them effectively for learning,
teaching and communicating. Our thoughts, ideas and concerns on social-economic
and political issues can be aired through them. Our blogs, messages and
facebooks can be the harbingers in eradicating social evils promoting patriotism
and moulding character, qualities of head and heart.
Friends we will see that gadgets are our servants and they obey us and not
vice-versa.
