Simplicity


The use of high end technology has made the life of humans simpler than it was ever before. You can now easily do things that you found impossible to do a decade ago. Technology has not only played a role in easing our lives but has also made it much more fun to live!

All this is a huge pile of crap! I'll tell you what the reality is...

When we were in the initial stages of our homo-sapien life, our life was as simple as anything... "Eat-shit-sleep"!
How much more simpler can you get?!
Now-a-days it's more like... "Eat-brush-read-listen to music-watch TV-Chat on facebook-sleep-wake up-...."!
How the hell can anyone call this lifestyle any simpler than ever before! If this is simple then I'm about to become the next president of the United States and Barcelona will end up in the bottom of the Spanish league next year!
The truth behind our believing that our life has become simpler is that its our natural tendency to believe Newspapers, and that its the tendency of the journalists to believe their 'sources', and that its a natural behavior of the 'sources' to believe what the scientists say, and then we all know that scientists have a religious belief in science!
If science comes out with something completely useless, they believe its something worth researching... and then reach conclusions like green vegetables make you healthy... which we have known since time unknown... but its just scientifically proved... THAT's IT!
Similarly, scientists now can pick a doughnut using a mechanical arm... so they say life is simpler... but picking a doughnut using a 3-foot-long, $ 50 million, titanium arm isn't simplicity... its insanity!
The ultimate truth is that our lives are far more complicated, far more entangled, and far more arduous then they were in the earlier times... The only thing that has changed is the methodology of doing things... Like it was raw deer back than and now its Subway! The only thing that’s simpler perhaps!
