"Modern" People; People these days...

So, what do you guys think of our time? I feel like a lot of people don't give a damn for what's around us. People who're always busy, online, making gossip, being superficial in general. I'd like to understand why they don't take a moment to relax and appreciate the landscape, feel the wind, see the sea, go to a park, enjoy nature and animals... For me, there's nothing that can translate the meaning of life more than our connection with nature and with each other (What seems to be getting worse, also, seeing so many fake relationships being established). I'm not like a hippie or something, I'm as normal as everyone else. The only thing I'd like to complain about is that people are going way too far with some (superficial and stupid) concerns, like their Facebook status, "celebrities", gossip...

It's sad, why can't people just enjoy life. Gossiping gets you no where and plus it'll come back on you anyway. There's this kid in my class that talks about people, and people always talk about him. It's just sad, so very very sad.

I'd like to understand what they find so appealing in gossiping. Really.
