Kids today have no idea how weird it was to wait for someone to log off the phone so you could use the internet. Totally different world.
Maybe I've romanticized how people used to live without constant connectivity. Do you ever think life would be simpler that way?
Do people even remember what life was like before social media? I feel like we might have more genuine connections back then.
I love technology but sometimes I miss just having a conversation without my phone buzzing every five seconds. Do we even know how to connect anymore?
Remember when we didn’t need constant contact? Sometimes I wish my phone would just take a nap and help me do the same.
I wonder if future generations will look back at our reliance on the internet as a good or bad thing. Is it more connecting or isolating?
I keep wondering what loneliness feels like in the digital age. Waiting for notifications doesn’t seem as comforting as it used to.
