I was born in 1974, and technology was looming large over me with its repelling (read sinister) shadow. I have been compelled by the peer & family pressure to be in sync with the latest tech savvy trends, apart from a T.V. etc., a desktop and laptop. I was resisting and trying to be fine untill the arrival of the smartphone. I have to eschew my old cellphone and it is an android now, awfully multitasking, and am is fatigued by being wired 24×7. I am seriously planning to go back to my good old dumbphone, and need some break…some rest and a piece of solitude, an afternoon spent under a tree, the rustling of leaves and the music of a gargling brook.
