A life without a cellphone

Mon, Jan 11, 2010

General

Can you imagine your life without a cell phone? Without a computer I guess most will do, I certainly am quite hooked to my cell phone, iPhone in other words. I felt that I would be very much into planning out when to check mail or site stats but since the iPhone walked into my life, my life has become a bit more hectic. But now I am putting a lid on this uncontrollable urge of fixing things via the iphone if I am not on the PC.

I almost had a heart attack few days ago when I left my phone in the mosque, and I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOO. But when I ran back, the one incharge of that area had it safely placed in his office for me, knowing it was mine he was like “looking for this :) ” phew..

But what about you, how much are you attached to your phone? Can you LIVE without it. And when I say LIVE i am not saying it in a materialistic manner, that I am not so big fan of, millions are without phones and we should be thankful for what we have. My question is, the way cellphones have taken over our lives, can you manage it without them now?

    indeed phones have taken big part in our lives, and most of us find it impossible to live without it (wont die). But i think i can live without my cell phone, thinking back to few years when i didnt have phone it was a life filled with entertainment but now thing happens on phone. for me cell is one thing that my parent force me to keep. there are times when i forget my phone my dad brings to college–(one day came to my class saying u forgot phone). i think cell is still just a thing i use whn im in need– but it does make life easy. things that i do while im traveling for hrs lessen my burden for later days. but i do use it for fun things too meanin chattin! :P

    Yes, I can live without my phone. In fact, I often forget to bring it with me when I go to work. What I can’t live without is my camera; I don’t leave home without it :)

    Aww – So great that you found back your cellphone :-)

    Well, for me I feel cellphone is very needed, as you said nothing meterialistic thingy etc, it’s just that it has become such a important part that I feel somethin missing when I don’t have it with me. It’s like a mini diary for me. as well I need it to keep in touch with my family N friends now :-)

    We can all live without cellphone, pc and ect. We think we are depended on them but if have to live without them we can. U will surpriced how wonderufll life is and how much time u actually got to do other things. We blv we have to do it right now but realistic notthing will happent if we leave it tomorrow and spend the time with exampple with family. Wo kai kahte hai jub parti hai to seekh lete hai.

    Have a nice day and do try to swicht your mobile off for few hours a day. u ull be surpriced.

    Not attached at all. I have a blackberry and all BB users out there will agree how addictive it is. However, at times I’ve left it at home, I always leave it in my office when I go for Namaz. So nopes, not addicted and can live without it :)

    You should try doing it too. Leave it at home on random days. Take it as an adventure :)

    Btw, thanks for visiting my blog and commenting.
