Cellular. Advantages & Disadvantages


Cellular making easier our life...
First, they come in many different presentations and brands for everybody also users can take them everywhere because of their dimensions. In addition it makes easier the communication between the people because no matter the distance you can contact the other person.
Another reason is that some of them have internet and it allows staying connected, keeping you informed and in touching with the technologic word.

In the other side it also has disadvantages and the more relevant for me is the way of how we used it because it produces many bad manners for example the interruption of a conversation.
Furthermore it difficult the direct communication and finally is that we are so unprotected because the call that we make can be intercepted.

In conclusion it doesn’t matter the disadvantages of the cellular, they are part of our life.

Hellen Keller

Hellen Keller said; “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it.” This can be seen all around us. Many people have faced great obstacles in their lives but have found ways to overcome and actually benefit from these obstacles. For example, Greg Barton, the 1984, 1988, and 1992 U.S Olympic medalist in kayaking, was born with a serious disability. He had club feet, his toes pointed inward, and as a result, he could not walk easily. Even after a series of operations, he still had limited mobility. Even so, Greg was never defeated. First, he taught himself to walk, and even to run .Then, he competed on his high school running team. He knew, though, he would never become an Olympic runner, so he looked for other sports that he could play. Happily, he discovered kayaking, a perfect sport for him because it required minimal leg and foot muscles. Using his upper body strength, he was able to master the sport. Finally, after many years of training and perseverance, Greg made the 1984 Olympic team. He says of his accomplishments, “Each step of the road has been made easier by looking just as far as necessary – yet not beyond that.” In short, even though that road was paved with obstacles, he was able to overcome them and achieve the impossible.
