It is truly amazing how technology never rests. It’s continuous and rapid development is not only impressive but it is also consistently advantageous for almost every corner of the world. Technical gurus everywhere are feeling a great sense of value in their services to others.
The unpredictable internet, the relentless drive for a “greener” environment, and the fight against complacency in medical advancement thoroughly challenges all that is involved. This never ending wave of ferocious progress has forcefully instilled unmatched versatility and alertness in each participant working in the midst of global revolutions. Society’s heightened awareness of any and all upgrades and updates has escalated with no sign of stopping.
Everyone is effected. Employees and employers are looking to optimize their performances and their bottom line by keeping a sharp eye on relevant and applicable technological releases. Students and teachers take pride in assisting their educational journey with “must have” gadgets and toys such as tiny laptops and nifty kindles. Athletes and the blue collar community strive for physical anatomical longevity by taking advantage of the latest and greatest health and wellness products available. Hyperbaric chambers and “human tissue producing” powders have accelerated speedy recoveries and rejuvenation processes for the fortunate, the lucky, the privileged, and the blessed.
One cannot deny the residual benefits resulting from technology’s unstoppable growth spurt(s). However, the people have to take the good with the bad. There are still third-world countries that could care less what an I-phone is. Insecurities develop in some parents that can not afford to provide the best of the best Wii’s, PS3’s, PS4’s, X-Boxes, and Next-Boxes for their impressionable children. Low self esteem can be linked to numerous kids that see their grade school friends show off their severely expensive upgraded version of the newest cutting edge model of the I-phone/ portable arcade.
When high definition is not “high-def” enough and high speed is too slow for our liking, it may become more difficult to find full genuine contentment in our daily lives. When great customer service is sacrificed during business transactions due to addicted texting and twittering from Generation X,Y,Z, and even the Baby Boomers, then we might have a problem that Houston can’t fix. It is undoubtedly a serious problem when the future of America is caught red handed texting and driving.
The vicious cycle is there and present. With steady progression comes spurts of setbacks and obstacles. The solution is not to slow down or end the abundant streams of positive growth. But the focus can be shifted towards the basics, the fundamentals, the principles, and the foundation of our world’s goodness. Temporary and half-hearted emphasis will fall extremely short of what we deserve. What we want and need is unconditional tough love, undivided attention, and unwavering faith…FAITH in ourselves and each other; faith that we are GIVEN the power, that we are put in charge. We make technology. It does not make us. As you can see, we all have a lot of work to do.
