The cold glare of technology meets the eye with each passing glance – little apples are aglow every-which-way you turn. It’s a take over, soon there will be more of them than us. They invade our local watering holes, classrooms, our homes; our instinctual places of comfort have been overrun with metallic hardware and artificial intelligence. A iPad cannot show affection, it cannot make you a sandwich or play with you dog. So, why is it that we are treating our technology as if it is living? As if it is a member of the family? This over-injection of all things technology into our lives has blurred the boundary between what is flesh and what is simply metal. It has caused us to be unaware of how dependent we have become on computers and the internet. We need to weigh our options, and prioritize because when it comes down to it what’s more important? Abuelita or your MacBook?
