Yesterday, at an event for real estate agents, many of the attendees were having intense conversations about various technology products.
As a matter of fact, MOST of the conversations revolved around phones, tablets, and even automobile accessories for staying connected.
Somewhere in the midst of the never-ending interchange, I asked this question aloud:
“Have we reached the “Event Horizon” of technology dependence?”
Have we passed the point of no return beyond which we will eventually be sucked into the black hole of non-existence? Are we missing out on “real” life by living in a virtual non-reality?
I worry about the kids of today. I wonder what they are missing as we constantly present them with new devices. Are we fulfilling a need or are we creating a future of technology dependency that will supplant imagination and crush creativity.
There is no turning back. We have indeed come TOO far.
And that black hole is tugging at me with more force each and every day!
