Fwd: Today's Opium

[seow khee Lai]

 

Today’s Opium  

People are addicted these days! Are you guilty too???

One Café shop sign says: “We do not have WIFI.  Converse with your loved ones.”

The major cause of divorce in 2018 will be the smartphone.  This is a bold prediction.  The smartphone may last longer than your spouse.  Your friends and family members are so close and yet so far.

The smartphone today is not dissimilar to opium in the last century.  It kills off our communication skills and poisons our hearts and souls.
 
You don’t have to wonder anymore why so many young people don’t read, can’t spell or write decently and are often inarticulate.
