In Response to Luke Black's Smartphone blog

I completely agree with Luke Black's perspective of how smartphones are in fact determining how some of us choose to live our lives. Our generation that grew up without smartphones realize that these devices impact our lives greatly. We see people like Luke Black calling attention to the fact that although these phones make our life easier at times, if not managed properly they can rob us of the random beauties of life. However, What scares me the most is that a new generation of kids is on the rise and they will grow up with these devices that promote looking at a screen rather than a sunset. This new generation I fear will value their social lives through social media. If you follow the link below you will see a video of how all these snap chats and Facebook updates do not really connect us but rather set us further apart. The more we contact people through means other than human interaction, the more we distance ourselves from who we truly are.
