Tech that fascinates me

I must say that technology that reduces stress from daily life is something that gets my attention. 
It all started with the Roti Maker. It's called Roti Matic and here's the link to it.https://rotimatic.com
It's probably one of the coolest things created for people who don't have time, don't know how to make a round Roti and (let's admit) people who are just plain lazy. Imagine being single and have fresh, perfect rotis everyday. Not having to go to the store and being able to eat Roti without all that extra stuff that affects your hormones. Total win!
Anyway, fast forward time. Then came this card that can load other cards like debit card, credit card, or a member card. It allows you to store the info from your cards on to this digital card and when you have to pay, it lets you switch to the card you wish to use. Pretty cool right? I think it's called bit coin but for some reason, I can't find the website. 
Here, I also need to mention google glass.. A noteworthy invention I must say. 
For a short period, I was really into all these tech creations which can be controlled with the mind. Ever since this guy experienced color for the first time (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Harbisson) it seemed like the human race has evolved to creating toys that can be controlled with the mind. Have you heard of this helicopter that can fly with just mind control. http://www.robotshop.com/en/orbit-mobile-brain-controlled-helicopter.html Oh yeah! That happened. 
Doesn't need a remote control, no mobile device, no app, just needs brain waves. This is how it works. You just put on the headset and focus really hard to fly that toy helicopter. The more focused you are, the longer it flies, and Ofcourse you control the take-off and landing. In my opinion, BEST TOY EVER! (You thought China was playing games? It's taking games to a whole new level). 
Moving on.. Hover board. WHAT IN THE WORLD!! Ok so here's a story. Growing up, I used to watch the show 'Jetsons' on Cartoon Network. I used to think it would be so cool to fly an aircraft every day to work, ride an escalator to the house, have a robot maid and own a never ending food machine that caters to my needs. Man, the word cool is an understatement for that kinda life. So when the hover board and even earlier than that, the boosted board was released, secretly I was telling myself the world is becoming a Jetsons world and I love that. I know. I know. I'm getting ahead of myself here but is that not fascinating to you? 
Now, coming to one of my favorite devices ever. 3D printers (angelic choir music). When it was first talked about, it blew my mind. Later, they said you could print a house, a car, FOOD-actual edible food. Are you kidding me? I'd buy three of those things. Now, it's still in the research stages but imagine printing whatever you wanted. The first thing I would do is print myself degree certificates (just kidding). But imagine people using it for all kinds of reasons. Good, bad, worst, ugly. Who brings control to that? How can you license/copyright/patent what is produced off these printers and how can you say it's original content. Man, life would be an incredible competition.
Seriousness aside- my dream of having a Jetsons house would come to reality HAHA.
I'm just waiting to see what else people create. It's amazing to see how powerful the human mind is. All the things imagined in these tiny portions of the brain, every idea. It can be brought to life. Man has access to that many resources and if theyre not available, he can chose to create it.  
My only question right now is, what's the shelf life to all of these creations?

  7. My answer, with all due respect, to your question is,"this is not a creation, so shelf life doesn't matter.
    what matters is, that the newness of what people do keeps them interested and active minded in life"

  8. They certainly have sometimes.It also depends upon us as how much time we have for them.

Coming from nowhere. Or is it?

When I was a teenager, I used to look at 21 or 23 year olds who were successful, independent, funny and beautiful, and think someday I wanted to be like them. I thought they were so happy with their friends, hanging out at the coolest scenes and being their best self. I thought growing up must be fun and everything in life comes easy when you have a job, an apartment and a car..... But maaan, was I wrong!  You know how they say life is not a bed of roses? That's so true. Getting older, only means life is going to throw more curve balls at you, responsibility is taken up to a whole new level and chores reduce down to nothing. As each day passes, things change, you meet new people, make new business connections, dream new dreams, demands increase and honestly, your just not the same 14 year old who can eat all the candy you want. Your whole body starts to react if you don't watch what you eat.  Life is so not easy when you don't have a motivation to do what you're doing. ...

That ray of light

I want to start by saying that my last blog post was kinda depressing. Although real, it was more on the sad side. I want to take this moment and shoutout to all those who supported me and told me how much you could relate, and also told me its ok, these things happen. It really means a lot to me that you are reading what I have to say and walking with me through this journey. I know that there is a long way to go and these are just pricks along the way but you just being there and encouraging me is worth much. I have a dream.... and I can see it in my head. It feels as though it's so close that I can touch it... but I know there are stops that I have to make, turns I have to take and unexpected things that are always gonna come my way. Success is nothing without failure. Happiness is nothing with sorrow. So yes, I'm willing to go on this journey and take you along with me on the roller coaster called life. I fully accept all that comes with moulding myself to be the best at...

Can one exist without the other?

Today's thought: In Undergrad, I had to take a class that debated between calling and vocation. I now ask YOU to think about that difference. Story time: I have a friend who is a doctor. During the day, she saves lives and helps people. She loves doing that and it also helps with her expenses (Vocation). When she comes home and closes her eyes, she asks God to take her to the secret places and hidden spaces (Isa 45:3). She believes that when she does this, God will reveal His plans for her life (Calling). Here's more to think about on that topic. The question is whether we should simply (a) Bring Him in the dedication of our work to Him, in the integrity, diligence and humility with which we do it or also (b) Make His professed and explicit service our job. The A vocation rests on all men whether they know it or not; the B vocation only on those who are specially called to it. Each vocation has its peculiar dangers and peculiar rewards -from letters to Sheldon Vanauke...
