Why Technology is making us more depressed??



“A little knowledge is a Dangerous thing” said a wise person once. But did they know excess knowledge can cause harm??? I fucking bet they didn’t have any idea!!

We are living in the age of Smart phones, Social media & what app and shit knows what new comes up after every few months. Our lives are now not more attached to anything but our smart phones. Any information is available within a touch. Going by the speed the technology is growing the day is not far when you will only need your smart phone. Not even wallet & keys to carry. Yeah it will…

Ok now let me come back to the topic, how this is causing us depression?? how?? I mean they were supposed to make our lives better?? Isn’t it?? But you are the same fucking person aren’t you? You have same fears, you have same amount of stress. Has anything changed at all??? Except the fact you have become more & more stressed and annoyed.

Let me tell you a story of simpler time. When I was Teenager, I had a crush. And those were the times when you had only one mobile phone in the entire family with a monthly prepaid recharge of around 500 to 1000 bucks (So using the Nokia Wala Phone was not an option); whenever I wished to speak to her I had to find a secret STD both where any of parents or padoos wali aunty uncle couldn’t catch me. That was a tiring task. Once I found it, I had to make an excuse at home to go out for play or group Study, just to make a call. Now, this is story of Karma, talking about the fruits of Karmas; it would take at least three attempts to speak to your girl you wish to speak coz most of the times her mom would pick up the phone and the worst part was the crush & her mom had similar voice. It was the fraction I had that you had to guess who has picked up the phone, mom or the crush? Using all probability and maths you can gather, you will see that it use to take a month of continues efforts for speaking 15 minutes to my crush. But hell yeah it was worth it.

After few months, we started seeing each other and broke up a little while after that. I did my graduation and post Graduation, in between we connected again via Social networking site call Facebook. She completed her studies and was looking for job. I was cool with that and with no intentions of getting back together. Also I didn’t find her worthy enough; may be because she grew up to be super dumb and really I didn’t see any future with such a low IQ lady.

But then some really weird shit happened, she was engaged to a The “N”, The “R”, The “I” , NRI, who works for Giant IT firm in Germany or Spain I don’t remember. Well all I thought was, lucky her. I moved on to focus at my struggle for a great career ahead, which is by the way is still going on (and I don’t think so will end for another century). Meanwhile she uploaded her engagement ceremony album, she was looking gorgeous and everyone was happy.

Now that’s when the problem started, she would upload every pic now and then. There were pre engagement snaps and after engagement, her mother-in-laws snap, fiancée uske Mama, chahcha, tao, behen, bhai Lavada-Lasaann and many more… this was just a beginning. Various wedding ceremonies, wedding after wedding, reception that just went for at least 3 weeks; and after that the HONEYMOON ALBUMS!! Behenchod Gayi 15 din k liye thi aur photos 7 mahine tak upload karti rahi !! Kabhi kabhi toh lagta tha sirf pics kheechne k liye hi honeymoon pe gayi thi aur kuch kiya hi nahi hai ..


Now when the honeymoon period ends, the household chores pic starts.. made aalo ka sabji for hubby, eating breakfast with best hubby (her other husbands might be feeling left out by this post), pehla karvachauth, pehla yeh – pehle woh!!  And by the time this ends they go on second holiday. BEHENCHOD PHIR WAHI RAMAYAN SHURU!!
See honestly speaking I wish a very happy life for her, but that doesn’t mean that bitch will post some shit each and every day how happy she is on my mobile screen.

In simpler times, all I needed to know was she was ok that would make my day. But now, I know she is OK, her husband is ok, her in-laws are happy (and they pretend to be a family from Suraj Barjatiya’s Movies), her dog & her neighbors, her Saharanpur wali buya and their family, she had upma at breakpast and Pao bhaji at night, how she is having a bad hair day & how she is cuddling the little birdy she found on terrace with ‘AWWWWWWWWWWWKHHHHHHHHHHHH” on the post!!
I hope you have understood what my point is. We all are personally struggling with our life and waiting for our moment of glory and love; and instead we are bombarded by annoying and things which we don’t need. This is filling up the Hard disk inside our brains and we don’t know how to keep ourselves focus on what we want in life. Sometime knowing and wasting your thoughts on the things that not even require our fucks takes a lot of energy and time.

We need a filter to keep calm and be happy for what we are, not what we could have been. Unfollow and unsubscribe to all the bullshit that is stopping you from being happy!!

Take care!!
