If I Could Control Technology – The Veldt Summative Assignment

If I could control technology

I would not let it control us.

I would teach the world that beyond the screen there is a whole life out there

We succumb to our phones as soon as we hear the ding

Scrolling through Instagram giving our thumbs a workout instead of going out

Venturing outside just to get the perfect picture.

Do we see what we are doing to our future?

We are teaching future generations that how many likes we have is more important than how many lives we have

That editing your body is more important than being healthy

But is this process healthy?

We live our lives through virtual reality but whatever happened to reality?

We turn our brains into zeros and ones instead of learning and having fun.

If I could control technology I would teach the world to live.
