There is such a strong push in our society to have some of the greatest and best technological toys that it seems very few people are bothering to turn and look at what all of this technology could do to us. We live through our PDA and cell phone while we are quick to jump in complaining about the lack of the personal touch if we feel we don’t get enough attention.

We want our banking and even our incomes to be fully automated by we whine about how our physicians only spend five minutes with us and don’t give us the personal touch anymore. We want our cars to be smarter than we are but we want to complain that people talk too loudly in public on the cell phones.

The 50 inch plasma TV is a great invention yet we haven’t determined how to make the 32 inch plasma TV run on less energy. We don’t want to talk to a stranger to give out the simplest of directions despite the fact that our Bluetooth GPS is strapped right to our hip. We don’t want to work. Instead we want an internet business income to do all our work for us.

It’s a wonder that we weren’t here earlier in the game. Yet now that technology has become such a huge aspect in our daily life, more people are starting to sit up and wonder what’s coming next.

When jobs are replaced by robots there will be great dissention, poverty, and hunger in our streets all in the name of progress. Is it possible that we can move forward with our technology and still maintain the human element that we need so desperately?

The longer we allow technology to come in between us and our family and friends the more we sell out to its power. Yet if we can all remember what is actually important in our world we would be able to decrease technology’s importance in the world and perhaps we could come back to the human touch.

While technology has the opportunity to improve our lives greatly we also have to remember that we still have a role in what happens to our society. The small decisions we make as well as the large decisions we make carry an impact all around us. It doesn’t matter if we don’t recognize it. It happens. And because of this we will have to strike our vote as a society when it comes to how far we will allow technology to rule our lives.
