I agree with you 90%. All because I think technology does have perks, but it is making people more...distant mentally? Haha. Technology gives everyone an excuse to avoid anything. I HATE not talking to people face to face. Then again I never know what to say all the time...I'm guilty of disconnecting myself from the world with my technology. I do know that I wish I would get away from it. When my phone was turned off for a week or so I thought at first I would mentally die, but it actually helped me. I was more focused on my work, I went outside more, I did some reading that I have not been doing much lately. Technology is not ALL bad, but I do believe it is making more people shy and mentally distant from human beings. Cell phones should be for emergencies...the internet should be limited. It just..it is taking over us and I hate it!
