When one thing has been done, it can never be
undone. Every action has it's own consequences and you should be responsible for
it. Think before you click!
With the advent of technology, one’s life is has been
easy. Everyone could communicate with their loved ones using cellphones, could
access information anywhere, could send resume online, could research on the
internet, and could even have instant boyfriend and girlfriends online.
However, despite the advantage of technologies, it has also its disadvantages
because in every medicine you take it will always has its side effects.
Everyone can communicate with their loved ones using cellphones but we tend to
forget that personal communication is more important for it builds stronger
bond between people. Everyone could access information online but people can’t
distinguish the truth between lies, they believe whatever they saw on the
internet and some neglect their manners when it comes to saying their opinions
about some issues. Cyber bullying was always been a problem brought to us by
technology, people who bully someone online never thinks about their actions
could affect one’s life. There are many cases of suicide that has been caused
by cyber bullying; they tend to take their lives because they can’t take the
humiliation they receive from the public. Students could research their
assignments on the internet but they develop this dependency and laziness
within them that just copy and paste articles and works on the internet
disregarding its owner. We are human but we do seem to forget to be humane.
Moreover, teenagers are displays ill-mannered attitude
online. Some of them are posting hate statuses and even fight vulgarly. Some
are posting nude photos just to gain likes and comments. Fame is a luxury and not
everyone can afford it. Instead of spending time with their family and friends,
they prefer to just spend their free time browsing on the not so important
things posted online. I understand that it just their past time but it is still
important to connect to people personally rather than knowing them virtually.
Spending more time on the internet is also a way of procrastination; we cannot
do our works at school and will end up having bad grades. Furthermore, trusting
people online is an act of stupidity; it triggers scammers to continue
deceiving people to invest money and properties. We cannot even trust ourselves
sometimes but why fully trust people that we just know online? That is not
being on trend anymore, it is ignorance.
Our
lord granted us freedom but being free does not mean we could do all things we
want, there is this thing called limitation. It means you have already reached
the limit and you should stop. We should be mindful on what to post in the
internet because we don’t how it will affect other people and how it will
affect you and your future. When one thing has been done, it can never be
undone. Every action has its own consequences and you should be responsible for
it.
