For few days I did not have my laptop and I missed it. I am so use to writing on my laptop, connecting with friends through it, when I wake up and come n sit here, when I go to sleep I shut it down..whenever I have time I am doing one thing or other on laptop. Few years back when we did not have laptop we were very happy without it, however, as with the advent of technology we get luxury at door steps at affordable price and slowly and gradually we don’t even realize that when does it become a necessity. We realize it when we don’t have it that how important it has become.
Similarly, few years back we did not have mobile phones in our hands, now even kids carry mobile phones and we do not step out of home without mobile in hand as we feel we r missing something, in fact even parents do not feel safe if kids are out without phone, they feel they should be able to connect with their kids as and when they want to, this was a luxury earlier now has become a necessity.
These two examples prove that how luxury makes us dependent on it gradually without us realising same, how it takes over our needs and becomes an imminent part. It depends on us, how much we allow it to be.
