Can you imagine what will happen if greed will takes over the world just like technology has. What if the next tsunami is named "voracity" ,the next volcano to erupt exudes the burning lava of lust and the next tornado of the hunger of power and money is unstoppable. How different the world is from what is was a few decades ago when technology has not yet reached its prime. The effects of technology are profound. And thus the analogy of greed with technology is quite correct. The world was so different a few decades ago, simpler , easier and peaceful. As soon as the technology spurt took over, the green belts transformed into high rise buildings, the simple one to one conversations have converted to communication by gadgets , letters have changed to emails, emotions have changed to emojis, swords have been replaced by nuclear weapons and everybody knows the effects of these in the world . The change is colossal and definitely not positive . The outcomes are as expected . Violence , crime, lies,fraud , distant relationships , unemotional empty bodies, fast paced selfish life styles are all but the natural outcome of prevalence of technology. What happened to the simple life style, the outdoor games, the love and feelings between humans , the selflessness, the relationships , the family systems ,the abundant nature and the peace and humanity?. All vanished in thin air within a few years . Exactly similar to this situation is the after effects of greed on humanity ,the same level of degeneration , the same ill effects and the same amount of self destruction . Only if people can realize the changes within them that greed has been cultivating . No value for honesty , no time for love and no place for humanity. Indeed man is cruel on his soul. Greed has indeed conquered the world. Just like the wifi greed seems to be the only platform that humans connect on. By the secular standards If you are success greedy then you are oriented , if you are money greedy then ur logically right and just helping your survival instincts and if if you are power greedy then I guess you are ambitious. But the truth is miles and miles away from this scale of measuring a human. Have you ever witnessed the downtown life, or the life in many busy, high technology fast paced cities of the world like maybe Beijing and Tokyo. If so then you must have realized how the people in these places have a very fast paced robotic life . This is what technology ,the hunger and greed to just gain more and more in life has made humans. We are enslaved by our own unlawful desires and the cage is huge ,it can take in as many slaves as possible. The shackles of fear and deception makes the escape more difficult.
