Relying on Technology (quick questions)
#3
RE: Relying on Technology (quick questions)
Is humanity relying too much on technology? I don't think so.

However, there are many people who do rely too much on technology although it's not always a bad thing. It's only bad if it leads you to become more isolated from others, not get enough sleep, affects your health, affects your mood, gives you more stress, and results in similar negative things during the day.

There are some people who spend so much time on things like video games, iPods, cell phones, texting, Facebook, computer, laptop, television, music, etc. just for their entertainment that it slowly makes them lazier and unwilling to go outside for a while or to do some physical activity. For example, they may take a car just to go somewhere 3 blocks away from their house instead of walking. But, of course, I don't mean to say that every one of them are like that necessarily.

To me, the important thing is to find a balance which is to enjoy the use of technology without letting it significantly aggravate some of the other aspects in our lives.
