For some, I think that the smart phone and internet does help them by connection with others, learned information, etc. However, unintended, they disengage us from the physical world. Simple and rapid innovations has increased the power of this technology too fast for millennials to adapt; this is the way they know to live. They fear boredom and reality found in moments when their phone is not available and awkward human interaction that will only remind them of their struggle for validation. Innovations have the power to slowly ebb out human interaction- erase it, because something insists it will be easier and better that way. It feels so much better to be disillusioned. Of course, more innovations mean time saved, but more time saved for what? Looking desperately for a place in the world to belong, a new hobby one can’t commit to, cheap internet happiness, more work. Meanwhile there is life going on ferociously and fiery hot around them and all they can see is their world and all of the fleeting emotion inside of it.
