THE INTERNET OF THINGS and MAYBE NOT

From running your washing machine to cleaning your dirty laundry, to starting your dishwasher and everything but washing your butt. Yes I said it. Washing your butt. I mean just how far are we really getting ridiculous with this?

I know it’s supposed to simplify your life but is it? It seems like it’s intruding on your personal life. It seems like it’s making us recluses. Even though we claim to be more in touch with nature, we are spending more time with electrical gadgets inside our house. We are doing just the opposite of what we claim.

We need to put down the gadgets, spend more time with our loved ones, and breathe in what fresh air we can before we become alienated from society. We are imposing an alienation from ourselves really. We just can’t see it. This addiction we have for electronic gadgets is taking over our lives and we are allowing our children to be just as addicted. I am guilty too. I admit it. I just want to make sure I speak out and let it be known.

So the next time you have your iPhone or smartphone or iPad or tablet or whatever it is in your hand, or your speaking to your Echo or Siri or whatever Bot name given, remember you are the Human and you DO matter. You are in control. You can stop this. You can. It’s not too late.
