Life without internet

We are living in a digital world, and right now it’s hard to think about life without the internet, as most of our tasks are dependent on internet connectivity. Our daily lives and the national economy can be hampered if there is no internet connection for several days. Many of us say that human interaction will be increased if there is no internet connection. Some people accept it whereas others deny it.

Today I am sharing the experience of staying without internet for 6 days. In this digital world, a country’s people staying without internet for 6 days isn’t a matter of joke, and nobody expected anytime for such a situation. In my country, students protested against an unfair quota system, and several students lost their lives for it, and the protest became violent. To control the spreading of news, our government stopped the mobile internet network, including broadband, which never happened before. Moreover, because of curfew, no one is allowed to go outside. Let’s come to the main topic again.

So whole country people had no access to the internet, and many things changed a lot. I asked some friends and cousins how they were spending their time in such a situation. Almost all of them shared, and I noticed the similar patterns. So, I am sharing how time passed during the time.

Without an internet connection, my Hive activity stopped completely as I had no way to access my Hive account. Although there was no internet connection, the electricity supply was continuous, and I could turn on my PC. I opened my Word software and started writing articles for the upcoming day, especially to publish when I feel uninterested in writing an article. So, as a writer, I didn’t stop writing articles even if there was no internet connectivity.

I always appreciate spending quality time with family members, and I am always ready for family time, family discussions, and gossip because I believe that it can strengthen the bond between family members. It used to happen sometimes only, but because of no internet connection, everyone was free, and my siblings and parents were in my room most of the time, and to be honest, I enjoyed a lot with them. Each day the same thing happened, and I think it’s what I want even after the return of the internet connection.

My siblings were getting bored, and they requested me to play indoor games, and I didn’t refuse them. I played Ludo and Carrom games with them. In fact, my father also joined us to play games with us. I know I spent a lot of time playing those games, but I think I didn’t have any serious tasks to do at that time either. So, I think it was quality time, and I didn’t face any kind of loss for it.

On the dining table, everyone was present before time, and my sister teased, saying why everyone came in dining table so early. We took our breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner together, and it was natural for us, but in the case of other families, it was different, but in the 6 days they also finished their breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner together, and it’s good in my opinion.

In the case of sleep, everyone went to sleep early during the day, and from a health perspective, it was good. I am sure if there were internet connections then it was nearly impossible to go to sleep so early. It also says that how many times we waste time using our device, especially before the time of sleep.

It was a similar situation in most of the family and passed the situation in a similar way, but the situation showed a different side of us. I think without the internet the life is not bad, but I know it’s impossible to continue for a long time.
