In today's 21st century is more likely the peak of the century of all. Or maybe it is just the current century that we are all having. But for me is that, the 21st century is the peak of all because of the varieties of technologies we are all having right now.

Technologies haves us free access to almost everything. We can buy goods and necessities through other apps like shoppee, lazada, Alibaba and many more. This is very convenient for we don't need to go to the actual shops and mall just to look for this one specific items that we all need. It's also convenient in time. Speaking of convenient, through technologies is that we can pay many things too, we can access to our bank account; withdrawing and depositing money without directing to their establishment.

Isn't convenient to have this technologies we are having right now? As for me is that this bloom and discoveries and advancement is the best thing that the human are achieving right now. This just means that the humanity hasn't stop of inventing and finding solutions to many problems or things we lack right now.

But if I'm gonna be ask, how's the modern technology is helping me every day or how I am using it. My answer is that, the modern technology is helping me to communicate with people far away from me. Before, I have manage to talk to people from different countries when I'm playing the Game Titan online which is where I first used this nickname lazysnail. In toram online, I met a lot of friends, a player from South Korea, Japan. india, Pakistan, Australia and even in America. I manage to be friends with them taking about stuffs, treating each other as a brother and sister. That's how greta our technologies is. We can manage to talk people far away from us, our families,friends , etc that's is not physically present in our area. Aren't you amazed too on how this technology really work? Because I do.

Technologies connect us closer from people that is far away from us but this technologies and smartphones distance us from people that is right in front of us.

This is the drawback of this Technologies. Currently we are now seeing a groups of teenager that is not talking to each other but eagerly spamming messages and post on their screens. There's this couple in a restaurant who's ignoring each other while the other is taking a photos of the foods and posting on their stories while the other one is continuously scrolling on his newsfeeds.

Even though physically present their mind is on other things, social media to be specific. The longer the span of time they spent using their smartphonesphones, is the lower the quality of the interaction they could make. Thus this make people have low quality of socializing skills.

Isn't true and happening? That even in our house or home to be called. Instead of talking to our families in the same roof is that we are deciding to do other stuffs like, chatting a far away friend all day, playing online games all night and many other things. Even when dinners time where we all should eat at the same time is not being followed because other is too busy staring at their screens. That's just how I get saddened from the drawback of having this technologies we are have now.

As for me, this distraction device is destroying the mood and atmosphere of the sorrounding. Imagine, two friends are having fun talking to each others, they have this varieties of ideas and stuffs that they will laugh at all. But then, the other friend decided to scroll in her phone for like 5 minutes straight. What do you think will the other friend gonna feel? Of course s/he will feel of and being at aside by her friends. Therefore the moods of their conversation will getting cold.

Hello hello there my fellow readers and writers Its me once again your lazy writer lazysnail. I just wanted to say in this article that yes we can't deny the fact that technologies and gadgets are one greatest achievement of humankind which can help us In a lot of things but, let us not forget and set aside those people who are really in here for us. They're the one that love us, and are ready to lend a hand if needed. And they're called our families.

It's true. Technologies make us closer to the person who is far away from us. But in the end, we were making distance on the person who surround us.

For me, technology advancement has been a great help in my everyday life. Not only that I was able to have leisure during my free time but also I was able to communicate with people all around the globe. 💗

True snail. When it come to technologies, if there is an advantage then there will be an disadvantage too. All things have it. All things are the same. Not all the time it's good but sometimes are not. It will give some distractions to humans that's why while we are living now in this modern world, we are the one to adjust and to learn how to manage of all the things. We should know how to balance.

In certain things in life, there are always pros and cons. Technologies gave out huge advantages however, there's also a bit of a drawback. It's very important that even though technology played a big role in our life and how we interact with people. We should still connect with people in a physical manner. 😊

That's why it's always said, if something have its advantages, it's also have it's side effects. We are connected with the people who live miles away,but behave like strangers who live around us.

I could relate myself in attending a supposed hangout with my friends but they all ended up scrolling through their phones while we're all together. Honestly, I really hate it.

Things come with boon and bane. Technology is undeniably useful for the people but the people must take control and must be wise in using it.
