Do you have to read your emails, look on Facebook, tweet a few lines, Play a game or two and while at work your lunchtime and breaks are Filled with personal calls and surfing the web Robots we are not We are emotional intelligent beings living in a world that have diminished Our attention with others to a text Sure all of technology is a tool for making things more efficient But are we so self sufficient that we miss the human element By becoming deficient?
