I thought Estella had raised many questions that's relevant. To find the answers thou will takes at least another decade of intensive research.
My stories below for you pleasure:
1. At KL budget terminal. A Chinese couple carrying a baby is in front of me. The baby would be 1 years old and not able to speak yet.
He is fidgeting, murmuring in his mother's arm. His mother hold him tight as they are about to walk down an escalator.
He continue his struggle which to me seems dangerous.
Now, I know why he is wiggling ... he is trying to reach for his mother iPhone inside her sling bag.
Wow... THAT iPhone must be the baby's toy...
not just a ordinary toy but must be his favorite!
Can not leave without one minutes.
(His mum probably took it from him just before walking on to the escalator)
2. Another 1 year old baby.
This time is in MRT train somewhere from TPY up to WL.
A baby boy is sitting in his baby chair watching 喜羊羊-cartoon.
His father apparently is also a 喜羊羊 fan...
His father bend forward to his baby chair and watch the cartoon side by side with the baby.
Lovely... like father like son.
But the small little iPhone screen is so small...besides it really strain the father neck.
Really, after a while, the father stretch himself and starts to look away...
Mmm... actually he is not a cartoon fan!
immediately, the baby pull down the sunshade of his baby chair...and have the whole theatre by himself... darker and quieter environment to enjoy a good show.
Now, I know why the father is watching the iPhone... precisely he do not want the baby to live in a pitch dark theatre ...erh I mean environment.
He tried to lift up the sunshade but not as insistence as the baby. The sunshade created a cacoon for the baby.
His father looks so helpless and close his eyes to sleep.
3. This time round a little bit further in Munich.
I am having my buffet breakfast and across the table, I saw 4 teenager 14-15 years old, got boy got girls.
they are not eating bf.
Instead, each of them have one if not two handphones.
They are happily typing and reading off the phone.
For as long as I observed, non of them talk to each other.
On second thought, they might be texting to each other.
Your experiences?
A Life not Reflected is a Life not Worth Living.
