With the immense growth of the technology sector worldwide, we unknowingly transform our daily lives onto the ever popular realm of the electronics age. Be it a gadget, a piece of software, or even a communicating method, the transformation is real. To live and breath in the society one must submit and willingly accept the digitized world.
However, the convenience a technological advanced society enjoys also has its own setbacks. These advancements inherently becomes a popular playground for criminals, perverts, pedophiles and terrorists, whom navigate through loopholes and dodge obstacles to attract potential preys, recruits and victims. From a light indulgences, such as the hijacking of a neighboring Wi-Fi, to more serious offenses, such as cannibalism, adultery, and the multi-billion Internet business - pornography, the deviance is real and could not be avoided.
We live in a world where curiosity, satisfaction, and a sense of accomplishment and belonging dictates our every move. We can hardly escape the temptation and hunger to strive for more and be on the top. To fault is human and humans are not perfect beings and will never be. However, we could ease the temptations and sufferings with the reliance on religious beliefs and the partnership with the opposite sex. These acts alleviate, divert and make the pains oblivious to our existence. But, regardless of all the good intentions, they also have their own downfalls. Religious beliefs sometimes turn into fanatics, idols, cults, and radical movements. The union of the opposite sex doesn't fair too well either. Most of the time it results in divorce, the separation of family, broken hearts and shattered dreams. We thought, initially, that with either a religious conviction or a union between the opposite sex, we would finally bring enjoy, satisfaction and solutions to all problems. As time elapses, we realize not only this is not true, but they also brought additional variables, grief and sorrow into our lives. So, how could one cope with all the suffering?
To ease the suffering and pain, one must set realistic goals, preplan the path, make sound decisions, be responsible and avoid deviant behaviours. One must be true to him or herself and offer assistance and a helping hand to those in need. Avoidance, retribution and taking a shortcut will never work. Only hope and a caring heart could resurrect one onto the path of salvation.
