Smartphones

What does quality time together mean

When everybody's glued to their smartphones

Mom and dad buy new gadgets

and forget each other... again.

 

Meals are left cold on the dining table

Nobody pays attention

to homecooked meals anymore

Food is rather thrown in the bin

or reheat again and again...

What is the value of mom's kitchen

when Domino's Pizza can be ordered via online?

 

The magicof smartphones...

Homes aren't cozy place for us anymore

Everybody enjoys secrecy... privacy...

Living far  apart

but breathing under the same roof....

 

Dear daughter comes home in tears

Dinner date a sheer disaster, she said...

He checks his Whatsapp notifications

every now and then...and smiling

reading his messages..,

A total shame...

 

Technology is meant for convinience sake

Same time rapidly ruins our everyday life

What has happenened to real conversations?

Hiding behind the sophisticated gadgets

What good is that?

Get rid of of your latest Samsung

and show your true face...
