It was in the 19th century, for the first time George du Maurier conceptualized an Imaginary Edison with Video-phone and published it.

Whether anyone dreamed of making it possible? Yes, so we are here!

It took a century or more to reach this stage where the people don’t drive but are driven by Technology!

Fiction to Reality, it’s a saga of experiments where the basic human want was to make everything smart and time-saving. Authentically, the pace of everything increased.

Life has become monotonous without the auxiliary organ, the gadget SmartPhone bid together with the Internet. People can’t sit idle even for a few minutes without watching into other’s stories- the basic behavioural psychology adapted by some tech giants as their trade secret. Those resulted in a generation with an addiction to know what others do. If for one day, the Internet dies!

# Addiction might result in self depression without being in the track of Social media

As life has become smarter with technological interventions, people forgot to be in the physical state! Everything available within our vicinity started delivering to the door with a swipe making us lazier. If for one day, the Internet dies!

# We might give up the lazy part in us.

It is almost a decade that we started ignoring books. The usual trendsetter statement “Read Online and Save our Trees” has unbelievably influenced each one of us, that we don’t even find a use of our dictionaries. Google has done everything for us. But if for one day, the Internet dies!

# Our Books will start getting out of our dust-covered shelves!

Every sort of celebration has been affected by this social media. People celebrate not for their happiness rather show off. Even before eating a piece of cake, he likes to post it on social media. For an anniversary, partners expect a brand new phone. People prefer video calling to meet up’s. We can’t even believe whether we live or not. All we see or what we look at is this gadget. Its fact the people hardly see their family. They seek something which shall make them popular on social media. If for one day, the Internet dies!

#We will start behaving normal, will reach out to our family, will start finding joy in whatever we have rather than like media infected dump.

I remember my childhood, where we had time, to climb over trees, play football in the mud field, climb the hills and fly the kites, and so on. We were attached so much to our Nature and the surroundings. They had a great influence on us both mentally and physically. Nowadays we could see a majority cadre getting amused on hearing the way we lived. What if for one day, the Internet dies?

# We will start exploring our nature from the point where we left.

Even this pandemic period was not predestined. It happened! I think for a reason that is before us. Nature started restoring itself in many ways. Same thing I would like to refer here as well. Whatever we use, Man needs to limit it in a way where we shall not be a slave to it but utilize where it can contribute the most. Understanding what wasn’t necessary and trying to restore those can bring a change.

Remember, the system alone can adjust itself for retaining its equilibrium if found disturbed! Better don’t wait for it.
