Internet has Now taken up a lot of significance and our life and it's is something that is going to be having a very big influence on our every single day which we are passing as all of the devices that we are surrounded with do utilise it as one of its lifeline and slowly it has got itself so much integrated in our life style that there is no chance that we can be living without it and it is extremely strange to even think about a particular time when we can be staying without internet for very long period and that is the level of dependency which we have created on internet.
However having to pass a day without internet is something that is extremely grounding experience if you ever had one because obviously it is very rare and very much dreadful to you and think of but it can also have it own set of benefits that it has to offer because of the continuous dependency on internet we have developed a very different Lifestyle then what we lead in the past and that has made us forget about a lot of things which used to have immense amount of importance along with the fact that we have also now stopped observing a lot of things just because of internet.
I still remember there was one day when it was a major outage in the internet connection in my area and unfortunately I had to be disting home at that day because I had no work and also my friends were not around as well as I also had to take care of my younger cousin who was at the home with me that was a reason why I could not even leave as well to just chill around when there was no internet and that whole experience was something very interesting to say the least because initially when it happened I thought that how am I going to be passing the day and it is going to be stressful for me.
It was a day full of disconnection with the entire planet as it seem to be because everything that we do is happening online even if it is just to be contacting with friends or ordering food as well as watching some content for entertainment and everything will action that we do happens with the help of those internet wires which we are connected with and when that disappeared all of the things appeared to be much lower because there is nothing to be doing and it was a very hopeful refreshing of web pages that the internet is back or not which was done throughout the day by me.
The service provider announced that there is a major outage in the connection and it is going to be taking around half the day itself and that was a major blow for me because I expected it to be getting fixed pretty soon or at least or at Max a couple of hours but when I came to know that it is not going to be staying for the entire day then it was something that even became harder for me because sting away from the digital world which has everything that we are surrounded with starting from our music content and even just surfing online and connected with friends everything is now just snapped off from ourself.
Life without internet seems to be a completely different world because now I have to be checking for the content that is available offline on my computer as well as also looking forward towards reading books which are physically present rather than the articles that I read online everything and all of the things that are now happening is more like feeling something that is the experience which we never had but has always been presented around us.
One of the biggest facts was about time itself because it seem to be something that was not passing at all and there was loads and loads of time which is something that we all complain about on a very regular basis that we don't have time but now everything is there for us and I believe that it happened to be a fact that we have a lot of time because there were no interruptions which we are constantly surrounded with with just because internet allows it.
I was just trying to pass my time in any manner possible and doing all of these things made me discover A forgotten to do list which I had for a couple of months ago and from that I did a couple of things and then just did some sort of things which has been present in front of my eye for a very long period but never really did them such as just fixing a loose handle on a particular cupboard shelf which I had along with the fact that I was looking through my old photos in the albums which I never really sent for a very long period and all of these small things was a great and refreshing experience and slowly I started to get more involved in it which made me feel much better.
Because of the internet outage there was a massive shift in my perspective about a lot of things because the lifestyle that be all are living is something that is very much digital centric and everything is happening just around that particular aspect which is something that we have normalized so much that we are missing out on a lot of other small things that are actually very much valuable and we should be paying much attention to them as well which is something that never really gets to happen as we are constantly surrounded with so much of digital clutter.
