Opinion: Using things wisely

After man reached the moon, it is clear that nothing is impossible in this world and man can use his energy to do many things that are considered impossible. And if he wants, he can give a new shape to the world by using his power and energy, as well as destroy this world by misusing his powers. So there is no denial that the usage of things matter.

No matter how many inventions have been made in the world till date, all of them have been done by scientists for the betterment of human beings and this world, even if they are just reforms and ammunitions. But alas! People misuse these things and instead of taking advantages of them by using them properly, they are harming not only themselves, but also the world by exploiting them.

Unfortunately, the misuse of things is getting more widespread day by day. And it is regretful that instead of using things properly and reaping its benefits, people are mishandling stuff like mobile phones, electricity, ammunitions, social media, etc. Technology, which can be the best way for our advancement and to connect to others all over the world, is also leading to distancing from those nearest to us and causing immense harm.

It is a human nature to be attracted to the wrong side of things, and the human mind is easily drawn to negative, or let’s say bad, things. But if they want and wish, they can avoid the wrong things because every human being can have control over himself. Sadly, people are reluctant to avoid the temptation of things that can lead to harm.

To make a long story short, if you are using internet, the phone or computers in a good way, you will have great and positive impact on your life. But if you are not, you will ultimately get bad results. Thus, it is my humble request to you all that please don’t misuse your strength and energy, and know the difference between meaningful and damaging stuff, then adopt the good and avoid the bad things.
