Have any of you guys
seen
Warm Bodies?
I'm going somewhere with this I
promise.
So basically it's about communication. At the
beginning of the movie when R (the zombie) is describing how he
wishes that he had the ability to communicate, there is this
scene where he pictures what it could've been like before
everyone got infected. If you look carefully, everyone is using a
phone, or an Ipad, or anything that's electronic. Well later
in the movie the cure to the zombie infection was communication.
Therefore the cause was lack of it. Nowadays, there's less
human communication than ever before. I know that this won't
cause something as drastic as turning into zombies but I'm
scared. I'm scared that one day we won't even talk to
each other anymore. I'm scared that we'll all just drift
away into our electronics. Don't get me wrong; I love the
internet and I love Witty. But I don't want to live my whole
life behind a screen. I want to go out and meet people. I want to
have and give people undivided attention instead of just looking
down at my phone. I want to go to a concert and really listen and
feel the music not just worry about recording with my phone. I
want to interact with real people in the world. So basically what
I'm saying is that we should all communicate. Try going a day
without texting. Or maybe a week without using the computer. Go
out and absorb everything in the world fully because life
is too short to sit behind a computer screen or to just stare at
your phone. Inhale the air, give sincere gestures, and just feel.
I hope this makes sense and inspires some of you
guys.
