Talking about spending time together in the real sense, it
is rare that people actually spend quality time with each other of late. What
we do is be in our phones all the time, either on call, messages or some or the
other social networking site.
Gone are the days when kids used to come out and play. Today
even the kids prefer being with their play stations and tablets. Spending hours
on the internet, chatting with friends all the time and not being able to go
out in the real sense is what is happening lately.
We all have become so addicted to our phones and that the
first thing most of us would be doing as we get up is probably check it.
Remember the times when people used to get up, pray and probably sot in
complete serene. Well too me all this seems like some hundred years old take
now. Everyone these days is only glued to the virtual world. Be it spending
hours in front of the internet either for searching some date or simply just to
connect with friends.
We have become so addicted to this virtual or superficial
world as we could call it that all we actually do is keep posting and updating
our statuses all the time just so that the world knows that we too are social.
Where has that privacy gone? Why doesn’t anybody find the need to become more
private and keep their personal life to themselves and not make it public like
that?
Not just that but it is rare that you see people spending
time with each other without any disturbance of their phones or the virtual
world. Real togetherness, in my opinion is lost while trying to bond virtually.
Real togetherness can be found when you spend some quality
time with your friends, your family or your loved ones. Something that would
probably be close to the nature. Like say going on a trip to some wildlife
sanctuary where one can witness the wildlife and be as close to the nature as
possible.
This is a very good of way bonding as well.
Other ways of being together in the real sense can be just
sitting in complete serene by the sea side. It is so much more peaceful and
calming than all the noise and happenings of the virtual world. This is my
opinion is the best way in which someone can spend time with the ones they love
the most. It is so much better than messaging or calling them. No doubt these
mediums help us to stay connected but the personal connections or the bonds that
are made when you spend time like this is different. This is something that we
should nurture as this is real togetherness.
