Today, there is one thing that a moderate household cannot do without. The world wide web. regardless of the cowebs around the house (which is the mother's sole concern) people want to be connected to the WWW.
nothing wrong ofcourse, it is rather a necessity. But with innovation that enhances comfort one has to pay a price. Now here is my question:- is the price worth paying or will a little lower grade of life starve us from going ahead with life? It is impossible to destroy the dark side of the coin alone without affecting the other side. It is the case with all innovations that man has made. But the best part is that we have a choice, a choice of selection. That is where we often mess up. Most often we blame innovations for ruining our lives, even though we continue to use it. The choice part of our lives are a mess. But not for everyone. Great men and women are those people who have made the right choices despite the hurdles involved. let us ask ourselves, can we?
Now why did i choose about the WWW? and why am i speaking philosophy about choices? The internet today has spread its web over a vast un-imagineable virtual space. Acess is a word that no longer has any restrictions accompanying it. When i was young access to the kitchen sweet cupboard was restricted. Access to certain drawers in the almirah were restricted. but today a kid if he wants can find out all that and more through the use of net. where has restriction gone. SEX was a topic that i came to terms with only when i was in high school. Today however i see upper KG students talking of sex casually as if it were a part of their lives??? so who is at the loosing end? Is it that i am not up to date? or has their minds been corrupted by the effects of information explosion?
