Conclusion

Therefore I conclude modern technology has made our society make it to the point of

ignorance to the fact that there might be a day when our technology does not work and they

cannot, at the moment, live without it.  We have grown to rely on our technology to make our

lives easier.  If our technology were to go away, our lives would be really tough for a while until

everyone learned to live without it.  My solution is that we begin that transition sooner rather

than later.  If you have basic map-reading skills, you can look at a road map and get to your

destination.

The technology which surrounds almost everyone in today's modern society, affects both work

and free time activities. Technology contains information that many would rather it did not have.

And thus, it influences minds in good and bad ways, and it allows people to share information

which they would otherwise not be able to attain in other ways. Even if a person does not own a

computer or have credit cards, there is information on a computer somewhere about everyone

and everything he/she needs. The modern technology which is just now beginning to be

manipulated and harnessed is affecting the minds of small children and adolescents in ways that

could be harmful. As a result, it is affecting our immediate future. It also gives another form of

communication and exchange of information which was not available before, information that is

both good and bad. Moreover, Technology is one of the principal driving forces of the future; it
 42

is transforming our lives and shaping our future at rates unprecedented in history, with profound

implications which we can't even begin to see or understand.

Recommendation

I high recommend to all the modern technology users:

1.) Choose Outdoor Activities over Technology

2.) Rearrange the Family Room Furniture

3.) Limit Social Media Use

4.) Set Aside Reading Time

5.) Create Projects for Yourself
