We did exist before the infiltration of the mobile phones in our lives and did so, much more peacefully and safely. Anywhere and anytime you would find somebody or the other, calling on his mobile. Nowadays we are not ready to wait for anything leave alone a call. We have become exceedingly impatient and restless. We of course cannot negate the advantages of the mobile phones in case of emergencies. Because of the small size and since it is wireless it is easy to carry with you and handle it with ease. Its a fantastic storage device, the importance of which we understand only when we lose it. Then we are forced to realize the importance of maintaining a manual telephone diary. Under no circumstances, should we get hoodwinked by the innocence of this tiny machine as it is quite dangerous if used stupidly. Instances have taken place when the people have been injured by talking on their mobiles plugged in for charging. Also the radiations emitted by these devices are extremely harmful, not even mentioning the addiction it generates in the younger generation. Do we need to highlight the nuisance value of mobiles in social functions, temples meetings etc.
