"Because you do not have a smartphone .. You should be stupid."
That's obviously the way we think today .. Smartphones do replace human's smartness .. Since they do everything for you .. You do not really have to remember that your mother's birthday is tomorrow .. Your phone will send her a message instead of you .. Your phone will give you orders and tell you what are you supposed to do and what you are not supposed to .. Your phone will be your new-mother .. your friend .. your guide .. you will not use books anymore for you already have internet access on your mobile .. Even if you go out with your friends or relatives .. You will undoubtedly ignore their existence and hold on to what you call a smartphone ..
Briefly speaking .. Before being extremely excited to buy a smartphone and before being so proud to have one .. Make sure you're a little bit smarter at least .. Be smart enough to know that the phone you own cannot hide your stupidity .. In contrast .. It improves it more and more and more .. :v .. However, as far as smartness is concerned .. it's not always the case .. Since smart people invent smartphones and buy them to stupid people who will think later on that they're smart just like their devices .. Guess you got the point now .. Having a smartphone is OK .. But feeling smart because you have it is NOT OK .. Be smart without devices .. Just like the day you were born .. Pure .. Your cleverness is the only thing that you can be proud of .. Machines are never clever .. A smartphone can be the dumpiest invention just by pouring a drop of water on it .. Even if it were that " waterproof" kind .. I do not think that a machine may resist water for a long time .. Only human mind resists everything .. And only human mind lasts forever and this forever will end when you die .. So make sure you'll be remembered for what you have done .. not for what you have had ..
