LINK BETWEEN DIGITAL COMMUNICATION
AND HUMAN INTERACTION
Hello Folks!
We all know this is the digital age from our day to day experiences.
Today, I aim to discuss the link between Digital Communication and Human Interactions.So lets start.
Firstly,Digital Communications has made our lives easier to a great extent.
It is a means of fostering human interactions in a variety of areas.
Secondly, we meet a lot of people via Digital Communication and get to know them.
These interactions may be personal ,impersonal or even business related.All having their own outcomes.
Thirdly,through digital communications people are able to form Online Communities.
Each communities having their own code of conduct and interest levels.
Such communities provide everyone an opportunity to link with like minded people and be comfortable while communicating with them.
Fourthly, people can develop their interests and skills by joining certain groups and interacting with people of similar likes and dislikes.
Such relationships are fostered both digitally and via human interactions in the form of learning and sharing.
Another link between Digital Communication and human interaction is the way it helps us in exploring the world through the comfort of our homes.
Sixth,via digital communication has provided an opportunity to make lasting friendships irrespective of cultures,race and creed.
Seventh,the element of Human interaction should not be undermined.We are first humans and then comes technology.
And Lastly,Technology should only be used as a means to facilitate Human Interaction.
It should not make Human Interaction dependent on Digital Communication.
It can thus be concluded that Digital Communication should be used only to facilitate Human Interactions rather than replacing them.
Make time for the ones you love and like to be with.Make online communities but also take out time to go and meet them.
See them in person.That is the real learning and exploring.
In Pakistan, Digital communication is used more for flirting or taking advantage of the other person as much as one can.
This concept needs to change here.
People need to have an open eye for the pros and cons while communicating.
We should only communicate with the ones we feel comfortable with and have a established code of ethics.
Think about it.Until next time,stay safe and happy.

THE ROLE OF MEDIA IN TODAY’S SCENARIO
Hello Folks!
We often hear people talking about Media Literacy.Today, I aim to talk about Media Literacy and its role in today’s scenario.
In the wake of COVID-19, what role it is playing is our main concern and this is what I aim to talk about today. Let’s start.
Media Literacy is a repertoire of competences that enables people to analyze,evaluate and create messages in a wide variety of media modes ,genre and forms.
Education for Media Literacy uses an inquiry based pedagogic model that encourages people to ask questions about what they watch, hear and read.
Secondly, Media Literacy is a contributing tool to help learners and professionals alike to broaden their perspective and experiences of media.
This helps them develop their creative skills and form their point of view on media messages.
Thirdly, Nowadays, all channels are overwhelmed with the news of COVID-19 and things related to it.But my question is,is it helping?
On a larger scale ,the masses have gone in the state of panic.There is so much positive to show but the Media’s focus is on bringing out the negative with a slice of positivism.
Fourthly, with every segment of the News that is on air, there is an increasing number of awe.Awe in the form of shortage of goods,of staple foods, of ruining of businesses ,of a bright future and what not.
Fifthly,is the overall impact on psychology.People need to hear positive things not just death tolls or raising cases or even everything is under control.
We are the people of this country and we deserve to know what we are heading for and what steps we need to take before going into a nervous breakdown.
Sixth, People around the globe are facing COVID-19 and have taken due measures to face the pandemic.Media everywhere, nonetheless is the same but what makes the difference is the ones running it.
You can have both scenarios. One where Media is state controlled and everything that is being aired has to be filtered first and the second scenario is Pakistan’s case.
Throw everything up and front.Besides sympathies, one might be able to draw International attention with donations and funds.Let aside the ego and stress,the people will be facing.They will find a way to address their grievances.
Lastly, every one of us needs to play our part in this scenario.This requires individual efforts of like minded people.
We need to stay positive and keep that positive environment around us.Media too needs to work on its strategies of airing News.
In the end, I would like to say that people look at media for the type of protection it can provide our future generations in making healthy choices regarding media consumption and usage patterns rather than turning them into mere vagabonds.
Think about it.
Until next time, stay safe and healthy.

THE SHIFT
Hello Folks!
In the wake of COVID-19, we are all going through a shift nowadays.Today, I aim to talk about the shifts and its effect on us.Let us start.
Firstly, is the shift from outdoor working to indoor working.It is a big shift for all especially who are in the 9 to 5 jobs.All you folks out there don’t worry.
All will be settled and you will soon devise a strategy to cope up with the indoor workings.
Secondly, is the shift in the lives of housewives.I would rather say not so much.Despite the extra hours of cleaning,still you get plenty of sleep to make up for the deprivation of accumulated sleep.
Frankly, I have never slept so much in my entire life than I do nowadays.
Thirdly, is the shift in our minds.We have started looking at life in a different way altogether.
Our focus on looking things in a particular way has changed.Nothing is immortal in this world.Make the best of it while you can.
Fourthly, businesses are taking a huge U -Turn.There was a time when doing small businesses were considered a shame and people invested in big businesses.
However, due to COVID 19, the businesses that are profiting the most are the groceries and the pharmaceuticals.
So, those of you thinking about investing in businesses ,you know what the best options are in these times.
Fifthly, is the change of lifestyle. Earlier,people’s choices in eating were not so healthy but now the main focus is on healthy eating and drinking to the best possible way.
We were aware of the organic foods and herbs and all but who knew, we would be doing the same we had been hearing for so long.Drinking warm water and boosting our immunity system.
Sixth, is the shift in our bodies.We are all fighters.We may or may not be diagnosed with COVID-19 but my gut feeling is that we are all infected.It is only our immune systems that is keeping us kicking.
So don’t panic.Be firm in your mind and stay positive.And do not see and listen to all that is going around regarding COVID-19.If we have made it this far, we will pull through it wholly.
Seventh,is the shift in our hearts.People have opened their hearts for everyone around especially the ones in need.
However,only if politicians in Pakistan who have filled their piggy banks with treasure can show a more open heart in this pandemic.
Eighth, is the shift in our mode of communication.We have become more connected with people around the globe especially the ones dear to us and even those who we know not.So social distancing has come as a blessing in disguise.
Connect more with people around and far apart and learn and open yourself.Let people be a part of your life and be a part of others life in the most positive way possible.
And Lastly, be Thankful for what you have and show that thankfulness in the things you do and lives you affect.
In the end I would like to reiterate that this will pass too like so many pandemics.But what we treasure today in the form of shift, acknowledgement and friendships will go a long way.
Until next time, stay safe and healthy.
