If you do not play with cellphones, you are not keeping up with the trend. Is it really the case?

 

You drive the phone, or the cellphones control you

 

The future business of the ophthalmologists for sure will be booming!

 

Cellphones are becoming the real life. 

 

The sign on a cafe says:

 

We do not have a wireless network; please talk to the people around you!

 

The main reason of future divorces will be cellphones instead of extramarital affairs ...

 

 

Nowadays when I get together with many of my friends to eat and talk, they are always in constant Line (Exchange free instant messages with friends whenever and wherever with one-on-one and group chats. LINE is available on all smartphone devices), taking a picture of themselves, texting or being absent-minded. I can’t help filling my heart with sorrow. Seeing other people playing with their cellphones non-stop, I decided to change to a 3G (the third generation of mobile telecommunications technology) cellphone.

 

I also have to play with my cellphone; otherwise the atmosphere becomes rather embarrassing. The scene is the same after returning home. Husbands and wives do not bother to communicate with each other, too lazy to listen, but too busy playing with their cellphones. So I very much agree with the following words:

 

A century ago people lay down smoking opium; a century later they lie down playing cellphones. Their gestures are surprisingly similar. They may not have time to be with their children or to take care of their parents, but they spend a lot of time holding the cellphones in deep thoughts or simply giggling.

 

Unaware, we develop a terrible habit of touching our cellphones the first thing in the morning as we open our eyes. The last thing before sleeping at night is still playing cellphones, as if we would be isolated from the world without our cellphones.

 

In fact, today's smart phones and the opium back then are the same. They are eating into our passion and soul.
