Online retailer Amazon has been reported testing unmanned drones to deliver goods to customers. I'm sure almost everyone would say "That's so cool!"
Tech world has almost taken over many areas of human life, and there's so shock it has gotten to this. Soon the world would be just like what we watch in the sci-fi movies.

Tips for Saving phone's energy
Whether you have an Apple, Google, or Microsoft-powered device, the odds are your gadgets run out of juice long before your workday is over. With more powerful electronic devices comes greater power consumption. But there are ways to efficiently extend battery life.
Scaling back on the whiz-bang is a good place to start. First off, consider turning off services when you're not using them. Disabling Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, your cellular connection, or GPS when you don't need them can significantly improve battery life because devices—phones, tablets, and laptops alike—use juice by scanning for signals in the background. Shortening your screen timeout setting and dimming the display are two good ways to make gadgets sip, rather than slurp, power. Likewise, turning off app notifications and vibrating alerts can save juice.

Working..its more like a blessing
Work is a blessing. God has so arranged the world that work is necessary, and He gives us hands and strength to do it. The enjoyment of leisure would be nothing if we had only leisure. It is the joy of work well done that enables us to enjoy rest, just as it is the experiences of hunger and thirst that make food and drink such pleasures. God bless us all!

Growing
Growing up means learning what life is. When you're little, you have a set of ideals, standards, criteria, plans, outlooks, and you think that you have to sit around and wait for them to happen to you and then life will work. But life isn't like that, for anybody; you can't fall in love with a standard, you have to fall in love with a person. You can't live in a criteria, you have to live your life. You can't wait for your plans to materialise, because they may never materialise the way you think they will. You can't wait to watch your ideals and standards walk up to you, because you can't know what's yours until you have it. I always say, always take the first chance in case you never get a second one, but growing up takes that even one step further, growing up means that you have to hold on to what you have, when you have it, because what you have- that's yours- and all the ideals and criteria you have set in your head, those aren't yours, because those haven't happened to you.

Respect Opinions
It's okay to disagree with the thoughts or opinions expressed by other people. That doesn't give you the right to deny any sense they might make. Nor does it give you a right to accuse someone of poorly expressing their beliefs just because you don't like what they are saying. Learn to recognise good writing when you read it, even if it means overcoming your pride and opening your mind beyond what is comfortable.

Others' Secrets
Funny how when you're about to be given something precious, something you've wanted for a long time, you suddenly feel nervous over taking it.
Everyone wants more than anything to be allowed into someone else's most secret self. Everyone wants to allow someone into their most secret self. Everyone feels so alone inside that their deepest wish is for someone to know their secret being, because then they are alone no longer. Don't we all long for this? Yet when it's offered it's frightening, because you might not live up to the desires of the one who bestows the gift. And frightening because you know that accepting such a gift means you'll want-perhaps be expected- to offer a similar gift in return. Which means giving your *self* away. And what's more frightening than that?

Untrue feeling about happiness
The belief that unhappiness is selfless and happiness is selfish is misguided. It's more selfless to act happy. It takes energy, generosity, and discipline to be unfailing-ly lighthearted, yet everyone takes the happy person for granted.
No one is careful of his feelings or tries to keep his spirits high. He seems self-sufficient; he becomes a cushion for others. And because happiness seems unforced, that person usually gets no credit.
