If Cell Phones Could Speak "Humans Would Become Obsolete"
A few weeks ago I was walking through a mall. A young man calls out to me and says "Sir, I have the best form of communication for you." The young man was selling cell phones. I replied, "Young man, what is the best form of communication?" He knew he had a sale when I asked that question. The young man replied, "A cell phone" sir, and he proceeded to tell me about all of its wonderful features. At that moment, I stopped him and said, "That is not the best form of communication." The young man looked surprised and said, well "Sir, what is the best form of communication." I responded, "Young man the best form of communication is having an open mind."
There's no doubt I do have a need for a cell phone. However, today's world has gone crazed with electronic gizmo isolation. The internet has become an endless journey for the mind. The computer, an electronic god with no morals and the cell phone has become the wizardry that dehumanizes the beauty of human too human communication. Violent computer games are the demon overlords of youthful minds. And the device that could have enlighten the mind of man on a grand scale became the one eyed insidious creature sitting in our living rooms spewing out nothing but rubbish rendering the minds of whole generations useless. These cold indifferent devices, while seemingly innocent, have shut down the greatest communication device ever created, the human mind.
People don't read any more, maybe a few if that. We can't communicate on a rational level nor do we try our minds have been filled with propaganda and lies, we have lost the ability for creative thinking, these gadgets do it for us. Without the ability to communicate reasonably with one another we have become the sum total of what we are experiencing in the world today. It has been said if man will not listen to one another then that is the beginning of evil. We see evil ever where in the world. We don't communicate anymore we talk through around over and at one another through clever devices. The art of communicating speaking to one another is all but a lost and uniquely human quality. All of this impersonal communication, without the natural of humanity underscores the cold indifference of modern life.
