Greetings!
Like I used to say, the advent of technology has brought to the human race a great relief which wouldn't have been expected to happen to us so soon.
The advent of technology has really helped us humans to live a soft life, a life without any form of stress, unlike the life lived by our forefathers which was full of hardship and difficulty in getting things done with ease.
I as a person love this kind of a life and I cherish it so much. How life would have been to us, if technology had not been invented by now.
However, all thanks to God and the inventors who have made life easier for us than expected.
Having said so much about technology and the kind of life it's brought to us, I would like to delve into the topic of the prompt before me today which is all about, “The cost of ease.”
As we all know that all that technology has brought to us is ease, I would say that the advantages of the coming of technology to us as humans is immensely great as we do not now waste time again in getting things done, unlike before when we spend eternity in getting things done.
Then to cultivate land for farming would take time, but today with the aid of technology, things are done within a short period of time.
So, on so many occasions, technology has really helped us humans to move from our past to not the present time alone but towards the future.
However, as good and helpful as technology has been to the human race, there's its disadvantages that are really affecting us all.
One of the major disadvantages of technology is that has has made the human race to be lazy. People no longer work hard again, as they believe everything would be sorted out within a short period of time without them being pressured into hard labour.
So, if we look at all these, one would see that everything has been left to the hands of technology and it's really affecting the ability of mankind as given to them by God.
Also, the level of human creativity in the creative field has grossly dropped. This was due to the interference of technology into the human world.
Before the advent of technology, the creative industry has witnessed immense growth, but since the arrival of technology, those people in that field have relented their effort in growing creatively as they have now subjected their creative omen to the hand of technology.
If we looked at all these closely we would all realize that technology has done more harm to us than good as we now rely solely on technology rather than building ourselves.
What this means is that technology has cost us and the only thing is for us to go back to the drawing board and find our path again so as for technology not to ruin the human race.
