Famous to Strangers, Distant from Friends: The Cost of Digital Life

The digital world that we all are living indefinitely gives us a very big perception that we all are connected in a very better manner then what it used to be in the past and it is something that is very Revolutionary years well and all of this is happening because we all are connected with the help of internet cells as we can be getting to any person on the planet with just a few times on the screen and there is something which has been made so easier that we are very much easily connected with every single person which is giving as an opportunity to be communicating instantly without even giving a lot of effort from our side as well.

The internet has made the connection quite a lot more simpler for humans nowadays as it has allowed being contacting anyone with a very small period and also not giving in much efforts well which makes all of this a very easy appear to be done but at the same time it is a very big thing that we need to be thinking about as it is more light and Illusion of connection because we feel missed out on the real connection with people at the same time even if we are connected so easily by the internet itself.

The internet has made a very big revolution in the actual ways with which we can be connecting with people as it has provided as a lot of such platforms that has eradicated the barriers that were existing in the terms of connecting with someone or reaching out to someone and we can do a lot of those things which used to be nearly impossible back in the day or at least used to be taking a lot of time to contact someone with the use of traditional methods of contacting someone.

But at the same time it is something that is going to be an experience that is going to be completely on the virtual terms and it was something that was very much Revolutionary when it first arrived but nowadays it has become more of a medium that people are choosing over the physical connections that people used to be making back in the day even if we are just a few steps away from each other we choose the digital connection over anything else and there is something which is not the best thing to be doing because all of this is not going to be ever equal to the genuine emotional intimacy that people can have with each other.

It raises a question over the fact that if we are connected or we've just become more visible to everyone else around us because it is something that people care about quite a lot nowadays as visibility is one of those social aspect that everyone want to earn with themselves because the engagement factors that are there on social media platform or something that is going to be a good metric which people can be using to calculate their visibility and they something which a lot of people do chase as well.

All of this has reduced the real connectivity with people quite a lot because everyone is looking towards becoming more visible rather than interacting with someone, which is going to involve some sort of conversation or anything else as well, which has made the internet a place to be used to become more visible rather than being connected. It has been our habit, or at least it has been the way we have made the internet to be used as and all of this has changed a lot of things in the way they were actually intended to be used as which is something that definitely is a very big shame.

Nowadays online interactions are very much short pant which is not going to have any genuine interaction with anyone which is also pushing people towards becoming more lonely as the people who are there on social media for longer duration that have been studies which has proved the fact that there is high level of Chand that people can have those feelings of loneliness as well as also increase the amount of anxiety.

People can feel that they are been locked at by a lot of people as that is the visibility thing that people are choosing but at the same time due to the lack of Genuine conversations and interactions people can definitely feel lonely and that is what is getting more and more boosted by the usage of internet as it is not even giving the genuine conversations online and all of this is also putting people away in the offline world as well which is going to be the most genuine face to faced on the station that people can have and the physical presence is always going to be something that will be the highest level of connection that people can have with someone.

The emojis as well as the video calls are never going to be the replacement for the conversations that people can have while been face to face as well as no one can make you feel that hug on that digital screen and that is only thing which we need to be experienced to be having those genuine connection still alive with anyone and those experience is extremely important in our life as well.

In the past the people who were the ones we were visible to were also very limited and the circle that we had was very much Limited in terms of the people as the only people we were visible to friends as well as the people whom we knew as well as our family but now a days with the usage of internet we are visible to the entire planet and anyone can be knowing anyone across the planet and the something which can be a good thing but at the same time it is also potential exposing us to a lot of unethical activities as well.

All in all the internet is a place with enormous potential that it is having with in itself as the technology is a really big game changer as it as already revolutionized the way we can be connecting with someone else around the planet as well as the medium that it has provided is also something awesome but at the same time it comes down to us about how we are going to be using it and the choices that we are going to meet while using it is going to be defining the effects that it is going to have.
