Mobile Chargers and Critical Thinking

Mobile Chargers and Critical Thinking

When reflecting on the evolution of travel reminders, I was struck by a poignant contrast. In the past, our family members would remind us to ensure we had our tickets before travelling. However, during a recent journey from Bangalore to Chennai, my relatives emphasised the importance of carrying my mobile charger. This shift reflects the indispensable role of mobile devices in our lives today.

Mobile phones are the cornerstone of our daily activities, serving as our travel tickets, boarding passes, payment tools, and source of vital OTPs. Their pervasive use necessitates frequent charging to ensure uninterrupted functionality.

A poignant parallel can be drawn between the need to keep our mobile devices charged and the state of our minds in today's world. Just as our phones require charging, our minds must be "charged" with critical thinking to navigate the deluge of information, misinformation, and bias. We must cultivate the ability to discern between truth and falsehood.

Therefore, it is essential to remember to carry our chargers whenever we venture out. Similarly, as we engage with news and information, we must ensure that our critical thinking skills are "charged" to interpret the content thoughtfully and discerningly.

Jaby was the most admired person in any forum; when Jaby picked the mic, the audience pulled themselves to the edge of the chair. Jaby was casual in his appearance, but he was a thorough professional everywhere. During COVID, if there was one person whom I counted on to help people, it was Jaby; his car was filled with masks, sanitizer and an oxygen concentrator. His social bent of mind made him a good Samaritan. Jaby was a curious child, whenever we both met, he was curious to improve his skills and knowledge, and his quest for development was limitless. Jaby and I collaborated in the year ...
