What's your take on smartphones, with it you can easily communicate with anyone irrespective or their location or even time zones, but at the same time some persons have become distant from society, finding it hard communicate with the world around them due to their phone addiction. Do you think smartphones brings us together, or simply cause separation?

This depends on the angle that you want to view it. If a family is spending time together and they are on their devices, then it’s causing distance. But if it connects people that are in far places together, then it brings them closer.

It is difficult to side with one, it is both a tool to bring people close as well as separate people. It all depends on how you are using it. For me it is a tool to bring people closer.
