Facebook.
Mamun : Hey Maruf, what’re you doing on
mobile?
Maruf : I’m collecting some study materials
from my friends through Facebook.
Mamun : Being on
Facebook while studying only kills time. I know there are some advantages of
using facebook. But it also kills a lot of your time.
Maruf :
I understand your concern, but you don’t need to worry about me. I’m well
aware of the disadvantages of using Facebook. Why are you so negative about
Facebook?
Mamun : Facebook and other social media
platforms are indirectly creating a virtual world. People using such platforms
often forget about existence in the real world.
Maruf :
But these platforms are improving our communication system.
Mamun :
You’re right. They’re virtually connecting people from distant places. But
what happens to the people we live with together? Due to Facebook, people now
spend a lot of time on Facebook and lack face-to-face communication. Don’t you
understand that?
Maruf : Now, I do. There is no
unmixed blessing in life, right?
Mamun : Right. We
have to control using Facebook so that it doesn’t hamper our daily life,
inter-personal relationships, and most importantly our real world.
Maruf :
What you’re saying is we have to take the benefits and try to avoid the
shortcoming.
Mamun : Absolutely right. Now, get your
work on Facebook done quickly and study attentively. Otherwise, you’ll cut a
sorry figure in your exams.
Maruf : Thank you. This
conversation helped me realise the reality a lot.
Mamun :
It’s my pleasure. Now, study hard.
