It was one of old design and unknown brand and I don¡¯t think apart from making calls and texting there are any other functions in her phone. But what intrigued me was not how antique and out of style her phone looked but how poised and undisturbed when she was indeed the center of our gazes when she brought out her phone and made her phone call.
All right, what¡¯s the big deal? It¡¯s only a phone and how much it could tell about a person? However when I was thinking about this whole matter, a faint yet discernable feeling of admiration rose inside me. I thought of the people I was surrounded by, people who surpassed one another with the latest design of cell phone with the latest developed technology, people whose lens through which they observe and evaluate other people were severely clouded by the question of how advanced their carry-on technological gadgets are.
Anyway cell phones are, first of all, means of communication If some one happens to have a very chic and fascinating cell phone, it¡¯s all right and nice. But if the opposite happens, as in the case of that girl, there¡¯s nothing wrong with it. She¡¯s just a girl who sees cell phone as a phone, nothing else, a girl who knows the limits of technology, a girl whose principles she put above anything else and won¡¯t let other people¡¯s opinions influence her own way.
