To be or To have

It is difficult to be without a high technology in modern life. In order to survive, we have to get information through the digital skills, because modern life is rapidly changing. Our regular education systems try to teach the general value to the students, but actually it is very difficult to make them wise in a real life, because they are plugged in high digital world. I want to say about how to be in modern life without electric stuffs such as cell phone, TV, Mp3 and computer.

First, it is important to have rules in family. Especially kids and young children are easy to addict to computer game. It is necessary to monitor their addiction about computer games, it means that parents have to have interests to the young children. The education of family is very important to educate them wisely. Actually computer is a wonderful thing that human invented in human history. It makes us search good information speedy, but it also give us bad information to ruin our mental health. The information has to be filtered for young children, and it needs to make a new moral in high technology.

Second, young children sometimes tend to be slaves of high technology. They are likely to have high digital stuffs such as multi phone, new Mp3 that stimulate them to buy. It seems that they are slave of materialism. They have got problems to communicate each other without digital instruments. We can see the technology eventually change their lives. They are good at do multitasking, and they want to be plugged in digital world. It seems to difficult to make them to read books to make them analogue world.

Third, there are some problems in our life it is difficult to communicate between the young and the old. The young people are very busy to do multitasking, and there are no time to communicate something with the old people. Also, the old people orient traditional value yet, so they meet conflicts in our real life. Some old people try to learn new high technology to communicate with young people. The old generation has to change their value for young generation as well as the young has to be taught by them.

In conclusion, technology have to help us be happy in life, even though we know it, it is very difficult to control it for our healthy life. We have to be free from slave of high technology, and we try to develop our mental areas to be good for a wise world.
