Headphones are very important because they
make work and travel more fun. Therefore, it’s so common today to see
people strolling with their headphones. Despite the seeming advantage
(s) of headphones, it should not be constantly plugged in your ears.
It’s much safer to walk around without your headphones. This is because
you cannot hear cars coming at you and this can lead to an unavoidable
accident. According to research, serious injuries have increased 300% in
the last six years for pedestrians wearing headphones. So, make it a
rule not to use your headphones on the road.
Your ears may be damaged if you overuse headphones. So it’s probably best to let them breathe now and then.
For people who are headphone addicts, they must have been told several
times by a friend that they called out to them and they didn’t respond.
Why? Because they had their headphone plugged in. If this is the report
you always get, it is time to stop plugging your ears when you are
around people.
After sight, hearing is the most important sense that engages us. If we
can see but lack the sound-correlated ambience, we become dissociated.
It’s like we are putting our minds on autopilot, and just going through
the motions of daily life.
Even if you’re the friendliest person around, headphones make you
unapproachable. It makes it harder for people to call out to you.
