cellphones

Cell phones, cell phones, cell phones and more cell phone!!! If you haven't got it, then you don't fit. Is this what the world has come to be. Cell phones have created a lot of problems in our country, society, our health, safety, our homes even in church. There is a story that one Priest was feeling tired and he did not want to wake up for church and he just simply sent sms's to all the church members with a script saying that God has spoken to him today and that is what he should do. I mean seriously, it seems like we all losing it. Where have you ever heard of a priest sending sms's to the worshippers because he cannot wake up. Not that he was ill or something. But because of our new advanced technology, that is allowing us not to take responsibilities and avoid our duties because we all want simplicity and convenient.

Another story is that there are people apparently who have named their children by any cell phone model like: Nokia Mkhize, Alcatel Khumalo, Voice mail Ndlovu. Well i don't know how true this is but it still feels like people are loosing their values and adopting this new way of living. Not only does cell phones makes us to become what we are not (Fake living standards), but it is also very expensive. This on its own demands a lot out of people's pocket and it has escalated the rate of crime in our country. If you don't have a cell phone you don't belong in the today popular groups, especially teenagers who are still in school and in the University. They end up stealing cell phones from other students or simply rob people their cell phones so that they could also own a camera phone.

These camera phones have put some other students in trouble at their schools because they don't use them in an appropriate manner.For an example, in one of the schools in KZN, there is a young boy who was taking photos of their teacher during a lesson and started distributing it to all the other students. These picture were of the teacher's butt. Many people love camera phones, and yes they may be of good use, but as far as I'm concerned, i only need a cell phone too receive my calls and to send an sms. Beyond that I don't really see why there should be camera phone. Not only have they corrupted kids everywhere, but they have made people to become unfaithfull and untrustworthy.It is so easy for people to lie about their where abouts if they are using a cell phone. I for one have become the biggest lier of note. If you ask me where I am and i know that you will freak out if I were to tell you that I'm still about to take a shower when you already waiting for me... I'll tell you I'm 5 minutes away.

The worse scenario about cell phones are those people who first of all are drunk and then use theri cell hpone whiles they are driving, not to mention at a higher speed. This has passed with a whole lot of people's live due to the neglegent that is around our continent. Road accidents are mostly coursed by people who do not follow the right procedure of answering cell phones when driving on the road. A driver is to use the hands free if answering a cell hpone on the road, if it is asfe to do so stop to avoid accidents. If all the drivers could exercise this, then we might just decrease the rate of roads accidents...
