The reason technology is the topic that caught my interest is because it is an occurring problem we have today. I see it is getting worse and worse when my little baby cousins only want to play with electronic devices instead of their toys. Many other children have this problem today and instead of their parents trying to stop them, they actually buy an ipad for like a five year old to play with, which I find ridiculous. I look at technology from my own perspective, which I find the modern technology to be amazing and then find all the flaws in it that we don't even realize. For example, I realize how much staring at a phone can cause headaches, and really damage your eyes. It even creates a bad posture. From my own experiences, I also realized how much of our time actually goes to devices and online websites. I think this time can be used for doing so much better stuff like going out on a hike or going swimming, which is both healthy and beautiful. The reason I chose modern technology as my topic is because I hope to open up everyone's mind or at least make them realize how much technology can actually negatively affect one's life. It definitely has made me think twice about how I spend my time and all the different types of activities I can do instead. It is an amazing feeling once you actually get to do the activities. You feel a change in your mind of how great certain things are for your body, health, and mind.
