We all love technology, but hopefully most of us would agree that it has a time and a place. We live in an age where many of us are addicted to social media sites, ‘sexting’ has become a huge problem in childhood, we can’t stop taking selfies, and some people find it impossible to put down their phones – even during meals with friends and family.
A photograph taken a few days ago in Redondo Beach captured the sign of our times perfectly. When a humpback whale surfaced just feet away from a man who was too busy staring at his cell to spot the majestic creature, it gave all of us a message to stop what we are doing and take a look at the world around us, as the above video from The Young Turks demonstrates.
