Day 5 – Tech Free Day

Bonjour guys!

Like I said earlier in my last post, I planned to spend my day without technology (actually I motivated myself to do that ;)). Now-a-days, we all are aware of how addicted we are to this technology, actually the right word is dependent. Technology exists in each and every part of our lives. I know, it is helping us A LOT in our day-to-day activities. But, you know, we are humans and we can’t resist something that coming forward and reducing our work-load and giving us time to think creatively and make MORE money. Also, in that process, sometimes we are forgetting that there’s life beyond this process. But, we are keeping ourselves busy and running behind the things that attracts us, but instead of things we actually need.

Talking about my day, the first thing I observed was, I found more time to think, organise and do my things. It was such a pleasant day and I guarantee you one thing that your eyes won’t feel tired at all. I didn’t even touch my mobile phone or TV remote or not even music. In fact, I composed my own music and enjoyed playing it on my guitar (not in front of anyone though ;)). Well, I studied too (which I don’t do usually 😅). But, then came to my mind – What-if, I stayed everyday like this? That’s definitely not going to happen in this life. Because, after, when the day was almost done, my mind was craving to check the emails or my phone. I am not that social person, so, luckily I am not addicted to any social media that much yet. But, these days, I am in the process of job hunting and now you can read my mind. I was worried – what-if anyone sent me an email and wanted a reply immediately or was checking my calendar about whether today was final date for any new job or something. I was also worried about my French class and well, struck down from my to-do list of today, because, I have to use my mobile phone for that.

Well, I have to admit one thing, though we are happy to spend time without any technology or social media, at least at some point in a day, we start worrying about our routine day things or at least think about them once. But, I really want to spend a day without all these chaos and tensions. I am thinking of – to plan my future vacations without using mobile phones and let’s see what happens. Hope one day, whatever happening to this world now, will come to an end. But, I guess after whatever is happening, our lifestyles will definitely change and also it is for our own good.

Now, I will take leave and thank you guys for reading this and share in the comments if anyone spent their time tech free and your experiences. Until then, À demain!
