How are Smartphones affecting the present Generation?

Smartphones have become indispensable these days for everyone. No one of us can imagine life without it for a few hours. It's been added or rather has occupied the place of necessities like food and shelter. This might sound exaggerating but is as true as the Earth rotating on its axis. Moreover, to add to this- "Corona Kaal" has played a pivotal role in making smartphones an unavoidable asset. Smartphones have become a mandatory requirement for your online classes - apart from this since smartphones and data are more accessible nowadays- we use them for entertainment, gaming, shopping, business, and whatnot?


Smartphones have converged the whole world to a single point and whatever you imagine or think is on the cloud. This has added to great benefits for students for learning purposes at their convenience at home. But as it is well-known that everything has flaws and smartphones are no less. They have resulted in innumerable incidents that we cannot even imagine. 
Do you remember what you did when you were in primary classes? Most probably you would have enjoyed playing outdoor games or played super Mario which was classic back then (Think and compare what if you were in primary now).


The primary drawback smartphones have is making students physically and mentally lethargic (You can play games, study, and whatever) ...But as they find everything on a single click, they don't generally tend to think more about something (Nowadays there are apps to solve your math problems) *Digests for the newer generation. 


This has made students less analytical and the ability to think extensively has been reduced drastically. Everything for them seems to be instant and ready to go. Unfortunately, this is leading to a reduction in the level of patience and perseverance which further leads to lesser creativity and accumulation of more data that is indeed not required for brain development and its health. 

Everything has its benefits only if used wisely and responsibly but at the same time know that majority of students of the present generation engage themselves in distractions such as games and other things that directly-indirectly affect their career, health, and life.


As the problem is widespread and persists everywhere, we need to find some practical solution so that technology aids new generations in creating better lives by making them good learners, decision-makers, and problem-solvers for the greater good. There is a compulsive need for regulations and solutions to prevent this. We all need to introspect, consider the path we are following, and decide for our betterment before the dead-end is nearby.

मैं जहाँ, तुम भी वहाँ।

स्रोत: गूगल  नमस्ते! मैं आप सबका प्यारा हरा-भरा तोता। आप सब जानते ही है की अभी लॉक-डाउन चल रहा है। तो इसमें मेरे मालिक भी मेरी तरह ही घर रूपी पिंजरे मैं कैद हैं। अब तो मुझे उनपर तरस आने लगा है, मेरी तरह ही उनके पास कोई काम नहीं रह गया है – उठो, खाओ, पियो और सो जाओ 😂 । मेरी ही तरह - उनको कहीं भी घूमने जाने को नहीं मिलता, अपने दोस्तों के घर जाने को नहीं मिलता, पर उनकी किस्मत फिर भी थोड़ी अच्छी है कि उनके पास फोन है, जिसकी सहायता से वह और लोगों से बातें कर सकते हैं, पर मेरे पास तो यह सुविधा भी उपलब्ध नहीं है 😅 । हाय! बेचारे मेरे मालिक, मेरी तरह ही - बाहर उड़ते हुए पक्षियों को टुकुर-टुकुर देखकर मन ही मन रोते हैं, पर एक बात तो है की आज कल वो मेरे साथ काफी समय बिताते हैं। इस बीमारी का कहर तो देखो कि हर कोई मेरी ज़िंदगी जीने पर मजबूर है, शायद इसी कारण आज कल मेरे आज़ाद दोस्त मुझे आसमान में ज़्यादा दिखते हैं। जैसे मेरे पंख किसी काम के नहीं हैं, इसी पिंजरे में फड़फड़ा कर थक जाते हैं, उसी तरह मेरे मालिक को भी आज-कल अपने हाथ किसी काम के नहीं लगते – जो ज़रा सा काम करने में भी इतराते है...

A Pen-Friend

  Life is amusing. And by amusing, I mean very interesting. We meet people. Some, we befriend while some we just snub from our lives and wish that we could just obliviate the moment we met them. Let’s not talk about snubbing or discarding somebody. Let’s talk about the bond that we form with those that are close in our lives. Now, I know that each and every one of us has somebody in our lives who we wish we’d never lose. I won’t label or tag those relations because I know some of them are just nameless and some of them are beyond any kind of denotation or categorization. I am also, going to talk about a nameless bond that I formed with someone recently. In childhood, I’d come across this particular intriguing word called “Pen-friend”. I was amused, as how two people, without seeing or meeting each other even once in life, could become really good friends and bond for life (in many cases). At that time I passed it frivolously. But as time moved on and relationships became meanin...

My Success Story

  Visiting my past, I realised that, success, usually recognized through ACCOMPLISHMENT, is a fleeting felling until a new one is added. But what makes an achievement ACCOMPLISHMENT is the emotion felt during the whole process. I’ve felt contentment, excitement, & proud, but the strongest one till date is MOTIVATION. It was 8 th session of my Bharatnatyam class & I was 10 years old. For the last 3 years I’d been trying various activities like playing a piano, UCMAS & karate but was never able to stay through the whole journey & I wasn’t sure I could last this one as well. But a conversation changed it all. That was the 1 st day when Guruji came to see how we newbies were catching up with what her protégé, Kazumi Di, had been teaching us, which included learning new poses by keeping straight & steady hands & maintaining the leg postures for minutes long. Through days I realized that this is not just a dance but it is a process which would help me establ...
