For centuries, a Dog was considered man’s best friend. A dog is loyal, friendly and something you can spend your leisure time with. In a person’s lifetime, one has to have a best friend that can spend time with them when their human best friends can’t. A dog, for once is fun-loving and cute. If a person has a pet dog, they feel less depressed and are happy throughout the time the dog is with them. But a dog doesn’t live long. According to science, a dog’s lifespan is 10-13 years, thus you can never enjoy this best friend for a lifetime.
Modern people want something that can be with them forever. They don’t want a dog or a cat that can leave them crying, thus they choose something that has a longer span of surviving, a cell phone. A cell phone is man’s new best friend. It is portable; therefore you can carry it anywhere. No matter which part of the world you are in. You can carry it in your pocket or in your purse. Long distance becomes shorter by a call made by a cell phone. Cell phones can guard you almost like a dog, you can call anyone anywhere whenever you are in danger. Old people living alone can call their neighbours or police when they sense danger lurking around them. In yester years, Letters used to be sent by pigeons to convey a message. Now all you need is a cell phone, you can SMS people within a minute. A modern man is too busy to buy a dog and take care of it. Therefore, they buy a cell phone, that is easier to take care of. The cell phone needs very less maintenance unlike a pet animal that needs to be washed and fed etc.
A cell phone enables you to access the internet, where you can spend a lot of time scrolling through stories and posts. When there is a cell phone, one doesn’t care to look for any other best friend. A cell phone has its own drawbacks. If broken, the repair charges are to be paid. A cell phone is very addictive and people have found out that using cell phones does make them distant from each other. Though they can make calls or text, they don’t find time to call or SMS them. A dog may not have special features like making calls or texts, but you can be fit and healthy if you have a dog.
