That click

We click, for the rest of our lives. Our generation revolves around technology and almost every single day we at least click once or more. We click to check out e-mails, we click to sign in, and we click to do online tests. Technology at its finest. Physical labor doing such tasks are going obsolete, and to think I experienced that not too long ago. On an average, a person makes about 428 clicks per day or more done by a research from Prof. Fenian at Cornell University. So in a week there will be 2,996 clicks, in a month there will be 12,840 clicks, and in a year 156,220. Just the thought of clicking comes so natural to us. We come across a mouse or a laptop, what do we do? We click. No matter how much we sit in front of our computer or how much we are outside, we will still be clicking in some form or in some way. We click to be friends, we click to read breaking news, we click to post our daily blogs. You see online relationships happening, and it is all because of that person clicking “submit profile” on an online dating site. It happened because of a simple click. Clicking has made almost every single known online activity possible. We will click for the rest of our lives. The question is when will this pandemic halt, and let us live our days without clicking?

*side note*
I'm recovering mentally and physically, just in case you wanted to know. I know this may not mean much to you anymore, but I know I'll work into telling you on how I'm doing like I said. Hopefully on your end you are doing well.
