My life has been hijacked by my mobile phone

By Ian Morrison

Idon't know when it first started.

I don't really talk to my friends anymore.

We just send each other texts and emotion on social network.

And the ones who don't do this often gradually fade away from my daily life.

I don't even talk to my family much anymore.

They all have their wonderful lives inside their smart phones,just like me.

Those days when I can chat joyfully with people who I love inside a cosy restaurant with mouthwatering feast in front of us are long gone.

Sometimes when this thought come across my mind I realize that I really miss this.

There are moments in which I thought to myself:Am I still myself?Or have I become my phone?

Yes,technology is what keep us going forward.

But we really should not go too fast.

We need time to empty our minds and reflect on ourselves.

We need time to feel all the feelings that make us human.

我不知道這是從什么時候開始的。

我已經(jīng)不再和朋友們進行真正的交談了。

我們僅僅是在社交網(wǎng)絡上發(fā)發(fā)信息、發(fā)發(fā)表情。

而那些不這么做的人，則漸漸淡出了我的生活。

我甚至都不怎么和家人講話了。

他們也都在各自的手機上有著精彩的生活，就像我一樣。

那些可以和所愛之人一起在一家溫馨餐廳里一邊享受眼前美味佳肴、一邊愉快交談的日子，已經(jīng)一去不復返了。

有些時候，當這種想法忽然襲來的時候，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己真的很懷念那種日子。

有些時候，我甚至想：我還是我自己嗎?還是說，我已經(jīng)變成了我的手機?

對，科技推動著我們不斷向前。

但我們真的不應該走得過快。

我們需要留出時間來放空自己，來自我反思。

我們需要留出時間來感受那些讓我們之所以為人的情感。

Y ou are enrolled in a full-time school called “l(fā)ife”.Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons.You may like the lessons or hate them,but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.

Why are you here?What is your purpose?Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time.What we and our ancestors have overlooked,however,is that there is no one answer.The meaning of life is different for every individual.

Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path,unique and separate from anyone else’s.As you travel your life path,you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose.The lessons you are presented with are specific to you;learning these lessons is the key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life.

As you travel through your lifetime,you may en counter challenging lessons that others don’t have to face,while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with.You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage,while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces,just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance.The only thing you can count on for certain is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn;whether you choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.
