"I, Technology"

The gym is like a microcosm of how we are in this day and age and shows how much technology we are unable to let go even if we cant admit it.

its fucking enraging to see people at my local gym who are unable to leave their phones, PDAs, tablets, whatever the fuck ever at home.

are we that susceptible to the lure of being unable to present that we are alone? is it such a burden to cut all communication with the world for 1 hr a day just focusing on YOURSELF AND YOUR MIND AND BODY? have we become such drones to technology that its control over us is imminent - or already started?

Multitasking is so predominant now that you cant even lift some weights without checking to see if any of your friends liked your status or some fag checked in at some restaurant.

we have lost a sense of focus, a zen like state where there's tranquility of the mind. leave it behind when you go to the gym, the people will still be there - the world will still move on.
