When technology darkens our lives and take away of its being advantageous.

According to the Associated Press of Micron Associates, a 43 year old ,Capt. Bruce Kevin Clark, was on an apparently regular call from Afghanistan with his wife when something truly awful happened. The circumstances seem suitably apprehensive for the Army to be investigating. A statement issued by Capt. Clark’s brother-in-law, Bradley Taber-Thomas, read: “At the time of the incident, the family was hoping for a rescue and miracles, but later learned that it was not to be.” It is impossible to speculate what might have occurred, but there is something completely alarming in every pronouncement that has been made about this incident.

In every situation that technology brings people closer to each other, it also brings closer the potential for more fully witnessing events that might be awful, just as they might be joyous. For an instance, your mother or any of your loved ones are facing life-or-death surgery, in some might surely don’t want to watch that surgery and listen to the doctor’s immediate pronouncements as they work with her or him. Though, one day, you might be able to.

Pain, grief, stun, hate, modern technologies deliver these with far more propinquity, far more impact than anything in the past. We have all come to use these technologies as if we had never been without them, but we have surely not yet become mentally prepared for the savagery — or the utter un-reality — of the surprises they can send. » When technology darkens our lives and take away of its being advantageous.
