Technology has become an integral part of everyday life. Technology has made life easy. It changed our way of thinking. Technological development and innovation are welcome to modern society, but there are always two sides to a coin.

As we know, from ordering our food till accessing our bank accounts and booking tickets. Everything is at our fingertips. Technology has also ensured easy communication with all. This is how technology is a blessing.

But on the flip side of that coin, there are so many disadvantages of technology, because of the human tendency of misusing it in various ways.

Increase social stress level, pollution by modern technology, hacking techniques. Even for terrorist attacks, social media has become a channel.

It is time, us humans decide where to put an end to the disadvantages. We have been gifted technology.

So, we should use it constructively so that it would be more of a boon than a bane.

That’s all folks,

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” 

-Mahatma Gandhi

Throughout his life, Mahatma Gandhi did inspirational things, things that nobody thought he could do. He made sure that he lived up to this line said by him.

Mohandas Karam Chand Gandhi or better known as Mahatma Gandhi was the Father of this Nation. He was born on October 2, 1869, in a small town called Porbandar in Gujarat.

Today, we celebrate his 150th birthday. The ideals of Mahatma Gandhi were Ahimsa and Satya. He not only contributed to the freedom struggle of India but also inspired people across the world. He encouraged them to raise their voices against discrimination of caste, colour, religion. He was a simple man with vast ideas. He was driven by his principles and never chose to disobey them.

Few facts we did not know about Gandhiji are:

1. Great Britain, the country against whom he fought for independence, released a stamp honoring him, 21 years after his death.
2. Steve Jobs was a fan of Mahatma Gandhi – his round glasses are not only similar but also a tribute.
3. Gandhiji served in the army during the Boer war – he crusaded against violence since the time he realized the horrors of war
4. Mahatma Gandhiji was nominated 5 times for the Nobel Peace Prize but was never awarded the prize.

His adversaries ended up honouring him and respecting him.

He became an inspiration to one of the world’s most influential people.

His experience was his best mentor. Experience is the mother of wisdom.

To sum up, here is one of his most famous quotes,

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”

Happy Gandhi Jayanti!
