The earth was created and humans were born. Eventually, humans got evolved. And they lived in different ears. There was an era when humans only knew fire and lived in caves. And then they built houses and villages. They started making goods and exchanging them. Then they started trading and then voyaging. Then revolutions came and machines came into this world. Different fashions got evolved and today we live in the 21st century. An era which our ancestors didn’t even dream about…
Life With Technology
Today we have needs except for food and clothes. We cannot survive without an electronic device. And if you don’t own a laptop and a smartphone, then life becomes very hard. Technology is rapidly developing. And the electronics industry is an industry that makes trillions of dollars annually. And today almost every activity we do is digitalized.

With the Covid-19 outbreak, this digitalizing process was also boosted. Since we have to maintain social distancing, we had to do our daily errands using different online platforms. Earlier we could go to a supermarket, wander around the product aisles and fill our carts with different products and go to a checkout counter, pay the bill and walk home. But today we go to the website of the particular supermarket, add the products to the cart by clicking it and pay the bills using a debit or a credit card and they deliver the products to our doorstep.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9EKgXwGhz0&ab_channel=INventionTV
This is just a simple example. And there are plenty of other such examples. We pay electric bills using this method. We buy the medicine that we need using this method. There is nothing we can buy by using these online systems.
Online Education
Not only buying and selling, but the education system is also running in the hands of online platforms today. It doesn’t matter if the teacher is in Europe and the student is in America, they still can connect and continue their learning and teaching.
But this era of online life has both pros and cons. Let’s talk about the good side first. Since we do everything using online platforms, it saves our time. We don’t have to go to the places and wait in the queues to get what we need. Instead, we can get things with a few clicks and get what we need within like 20 minutes. Especially, these days it is very safe. In this way, we can avoid human interactions and stop spreading the Covid-19 virus.

Cons of Online Life
But we have to face the flaws as well. Some people don’t have the equipment and the knowledge to handle these platforms. And when you are using your bank account details many fraudulent activities can take place. Plus every student is not comfortable with these new online teaching methods.
But believe me, you can never get the feelings by reading an actual book or by doing shopping with your gal pals. But we have to live accordingly. And you can always find ways to have fun. But what you always have to remember is, that even though this is the era of online do not try to make everything in your life online. Have some chit chats with your mother instead of chatting with friends on Facebook. Spend some quality time with your sibling instead of scrolling up and down on Instagram. Try out some new recipes instead of sighing for the pictures of different food you see on social media. So make sure to balance both…
