Up to now, I still have not had entire faith in the Internet. It results from several deceptions that my relatives and families have ever encountered. For instance, once my aunt wanted to buy a blouse from the Internet. Unfortunately, several months after she had paid, she received nothing but a package, which she afterwards found it stuffed with waste cloth. Furthermore, my father used to tell me: “You can believe anything but that on the Internet.” He thought that as the Internet itself was a virtual product, that on the Internet must be unreal and meaningless, too. I admit that he is kind of assertive; however, I agree with him to some extent.
Take loves on the Internet for example. I believe that it is hard to find my special one on the Internet, for each pieces of information including the photo can be artificial. You may think that I am conservative but I still insist that how can I get interested in a person without knowing the truth about her. As I consider, true love is based on the integrity- in other words, both sides should not have anything to conceal unless it is better to tell white lies.
Once the two people have known each other, they want to express their loves to each other on the Internet. Some people choose to send virtual gifts like roses, cakes, even Benzes and Lamborghinis. However, in my opinion, these virtual gifts are not better than a written letter filled with love because they are not things produce with one’s own effort. Although a letter is just a piece of paper which is not that valuable, it did show one’s love for another person because of every affectionate sentence he or she writes. As for virtual gifts, what they cost you are just several clicks of your mouse; do you think that a simple click of your mouse can stand for your thick love for your beloved?
Of course, we cannot deny that the Internet has made unprecedented progress in enhancing the quality of our life, but at times I still prefer the old-fashion way. New things are not always good while old things are not always bad, as I consider.
