Reflection of Technology

            Technology is one of the most important parts of my life, which is hard to say because it is unreal how affected my life would be without technology. Every single day everyone uses some sort of technology. Such as; every morning I wake up to an alarm clock, make phone calls or text messages on my cell phone, I use the computer for homework and emails, lights in my house, watch television, etc. With today’s day and age, we are swarmed with technology and it’s a way of life for us because we are so dependent on it. If something were to happen to where all technology failed, I would not know what to do to have food and communication would be very difficult. I have as much respect possible for our ancestors who survived through the age where they used fire for light and to cook the food that they hunted for because they did not have technology for food to go through a process and into a store.

            Technology certainly dominates my way of life, and I would be hopeless without it. This is a very scary statement but true for me and many people of my generation, some generations before, and most definitely the future generations. In my opinion, technology is already somewhat a destroyer of society. Technology makes tasks around the household much easier that there are other tasks people worry about, and unlike the old times, there is not a family effort to keep a household steady which may be the cause of a higher divorce rate now then back then, in my opinion. I’m excited and frightened by what technology will turn into for years to come in the future.
