Friends are people that we cannot get rid of in our lifetime. But, bad companies leads to bad 😞 life. As we normally put it, show me your friends and I will show you my character. Original and good 👍 friends may bring many opportunities and prosperity in life. However, bad friends will always lead to social vices and finally ruin people's life.
My Story - Real Experience
The mistakes I wouldn't repeat them upon joining some friends when I wasn't having computer and mobile phones way back 2009 when I was jobless. Friends from secondary schools, colleges and universities are sometimes friends built up in life even when we depart, marry and begin life. So, I was still having some friends from college we didn't depart friendship even when we completed college looking for job. Some of these friends were those who would invite you for drinking alcoholic beverages, going for clubs, parties and doing all nasty things in life.
After a year when I had a permanent job, I found that I was still addicted and controlled with those bad lifestyle. I nearly became a drunkard and rascal which I wasn't actually destined in life. I realized that I was diverting my life to something else.I had to quickly be of myself and find something as substitute to that lifestyle.
Why Computer & Mobile being the best substitute for some friends
Best friends are needed in life. I still partner with good friends who will add value to my life. I have now quit friends who near spoiled my life. I have substituted these bad friends with my Computer and mobile phone. I see these devices adding more value to my life even more that what my friends would give me. The following are summary of my reasons that would make me go crazy if my computer and mobile phone go off 📴 from me for a week:
1• Accessibility to internet sites for blogging.
Blogging has become part of my life and routines for almost five (5) years now. I also use my computer and mobile phones for trading and building connections. Imagines, how do I cope with this situation or withstand this pressure if my computer or mobile phone break down? Though, my room is large, I tell you,I cannot occupy the room! Hive communities have been very interactive for me within few months of joining. Crypto exchange platforms for trading has been one of the Hallmark and my dream of changing my life too and having a brighter future for my families. One week not interacting with my phone or computer would like having lost my son or daughter.
2• Planning something meaning
With computer and mobile phone, I am able to cogitate and plan for something meaningful in life. Even though, friends could give positive answers to certain questions I would be demanding, but, computer and mobile phone with the connection or internet services do it better. It just a matter of having my good browser like Google chrome and internet explorer, anything I ask them would be provided for me within some few seconds. This has even kept me more indoors rather than wasting time roaming with friends, doing all sort of unnecessary things.

3. Computer and phone games as substitute to physical games.
Instead of going out to play oware, ludo, cards, dame and many physical games we use to play in our local community, I would rather use my computer and mobile games. There are many games that are beneficial compare to going out to play with friends. Most computer games even earns some tokens apart from playing for excitement. Due to physical training of psychology motor of the limbs & hinds I used to do my jogging 👟 and playing football in the morning and use the rest of my time playing computer & mobile phone games.
In Conclusion,
Computer and mobile phones have really helped me to eliminate bad 😔 friends from my life. I can't therefore afford to lose them for a week. In their absence for that week would let me think 🤔 parting with them again of which I am not ready to do so. In fact, life would also be boredom if these devices aren't with me and staying indoors too. Your suggestions and contribution would let me feel better what to do in case my computer and mobile phone go off for a week.
