TECHNOLOGY: A Boon or A Curse
We all know the word 'Technology' very well. But do you all know the meaning of it? 'Technology' means 'knowledge about tech'. This was the real meaning of it, but we all know only one meaning of it; that is electrical gadgets. It consists of mobiles, T.V, computers, etc.
In today's world, we see technology everywhere and every single day. When we walk on the roads there are CCTV cameras, when children go to school; there are projectors, cameras, computers, etc. in the classes. When we visit offices we can see computers, AC, fans, laptops, etc. and in our hands we have mobiles. You see that there is technology everywhere. Technology has gained too much advancement eg: smart homes, Bluetooth earphones, spy cameras, robots, etc. These technologies were only created by humans. John Tudor said that: ''Technology makes it possible for people to gain control over everything except over technology.'' and it is absolutely true.
It cannot be said whether technology is a boon or a curse because it depends on our usage. Usually, we can see children continuously watching tv's, mobiles, playing games without blinking their eyes, this may cause severe damage to their eyes and brains, for them technology is a curse. But on the other hand, we can see some children playing games for only some time and doing their other work, some children do online learning; for them; the technology is a boon. And for some people; they have to see computers, mobiles or laptops because of the work that they have chosen. As children see too much mobile or computers they get angry easily, they become rude in manner; and some children have got various diseases of eyes and even some of them have gone blind!! As many parents give their children mobiles to keep them busy we can see small children wearing big spectacles. If we take proper care of our eyes, we will not have spectacles and our eyes will not weaken.
Technology is a curse for them who do not use it properly and technology is a boon for them who use it properly and limited for use. In today's world life without technology is impossible, therefore we must make it a boon for us. And we can say that today's world is shrinking because of the advancement of technology.
