The New cOlOr of heart is Black
With the new upgraded
version of android, the androiders can now send a heart smiley (<3) in text
messages and also can jump & show off about it. I just received one! And
this little Black-heart icon takes me to yet another connect of the technology
with relationships. Technology with relationships-what shit she is talking
about? But yes, I am talking about relationships with technology- how
technology effects, influences and evolves any relationship.

Communication is the mother
to any damn relationship on this earth. As a famous tag line says -“Baat hogi
tabhi to baat banegi” (when talking will happen then only something beyond might
happen). In simple flowchart language- we talk>>know each
other>>like/dislike>>result: Relationship (no matter what kind of).
With all the state-of-the-art techniques and facilities of communication
available, we often start taking people and their availability for granted
assuming they are just a call away but in the process we tend to pile up
a huge heap of such taken-for-granted-pending calls that ‘they’ don’t remain
anymore just a call away. They just drift Far Away!
We tech-savvy and so called
new age people wonder how would it have been in black & white times ,
writing letters and then waiting for not less than 15 days for its reply; these
days when I receive even a mail, I first go to ‘sent items’ to understand the
context of the reply received. In even blacker and whiter times (ancient for
that matter), the kings stayed away from home for decades in order to fight for
his region and still returned back to find his wife waiting for him with all
the love in her eyes; these days people go through a literal brain-wash if they
are away even for a month and break up is the understood following route.
Our lives these days are
very restless, changing places, positions and people frequently! We say
“BYE(s)” very often now and add a “Stay Connected” to it as an understated
suffix. But we don’t realize, when those byes convert into Goodbyes, forget
connect we even loose contacts, and then when no one is left, we read/write
such articles!
The original color of heart
is supposedly Red which means a symbol of love, affection and warmth. In Black
& white times, it must be actually red, when people really remain connected
not by texts or calls or comments or likes but by hearts and thoughts! Now that
everything else has become so colorful, the heart has taken a back seat! People
love (or at least pretend to) till they see each other; brain works as the
second heart and insensitiveness is named being practical.
Now I understand why
android developers have kept the color of their Heart smiley- Black!

ReplyDeleteBYE and Stay Connected wow its a fact that u drew from our daily life, its so bloody true and we don't recognize it in our daily roller coaster ride.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anshuman for doing 'it' here!
Deleteu r more liable or bound to give answers when u rely much on technology i really dont believe in the "relationship" of technology and relationship.it can ease it but cant provide it and i do think that the shallowness of relationship is only due to technology . technolgy provides u the the means to express any thngh before u actually feel it so as they say one mild date 1 wild date than its over its only due to technology .dats all ms "guest author"
ReplyDeleteSo true Pk! 'Shallowness of relationship is only due to technology' actually!Very thoughtful comment i must say. Thanks for the read!
DeleteLove changes us, but we change how we love too.
ReplyDeleteThe HOW changes itself automatically with Whom we are loving!
DeletePeople lie, things change, boyfriends/girlfriends cheat, friends ditch and there are always going to be those people who would kill to see you fall.
