The world of today is click oriented. Everything is just a click away thanks to the concept of online shopping. Once it used to be the snap of the fingers, today it is a simple click! You want groceries or veggies or any non-veg item, just log in to the relevant app, place the order and pay through plastic money. The item will land up at your doorstep. No need to move out of the comforts of your home. It saves on time, preserves your energy and avoids crowded market places. Similarly for delicious mouthwatering snacks like pizzas, burgers, biriyanis etcetera. The delivery boy of Zomato or Swiggy or Domino's arrives with the items, even at odd hours. These are a few of the +ves for some.
Now the flip side. In the good old days when one had to physically go the market to get his necessities. He would interact with the sellers, exchange greetings with known faces along the way. Such exchanges carried a lot of meaning. They meant – “I am well, so are you.” Then there was the physical touch of fresh vegetables, selecting the best fruits – depending on the size of the pocket. The brief visit to the market in the morning instead of depending to online shopping are a few of the –ves for some. Those in this category are labeled as outdated but they were fortunate to add a zing to their lives.
