It's NEW I want it! OH It's OLD now, no thanks..
Thursday, June 4, 2009


WOW! First of all, I am astounded by Louis C.K.'s sense of humour. I can't imagine how in reality, this is actually very relevant.

The evolution of technology has been a great and growing aspect in our lives. It seems as we have evolved from old school technology to new hightech technology within a few decades. Humans, are blessed by the abundant technology we possess in the palm of our hands. Technology is everwhere, in washrooms, building, and even airplanes. But the question is, how do we react to the evolution of technology? C.K. Louis was able to convey his point loud and clear: "Everything is amazing and nobody's happy". Why isn't anyone happy? Technology has eased our daily lives. We finally have cellphones as big as our hands can hold instead of those brick size cellphones, we have portable computer that we can bring anywhere we please, we have a device that contains everysingle application needed the iPhone. Why aren't we still happy? A good question asked.

There is only two words that can answer such a good question, satisfaction and contentment. As technology advances almost everyday, it seems as if the old one isn't just right for us because the new one is better, bigger, and simply much more hightech leaving the "so yesterday" item worthless and unappealing. Everyone just has to have the newest item on the rack. My mom told me something I will always remember, "people aren't happy because they are not content and satisfied with what they have, they always want to get the newest one and be 'in' and it will continue because the new technology they just bought wil be out of date soon." Even though we are blessed with technology we cannot fulfill that peak of happiness without contentment and satisfaction. People by nature are selfish and will always want to get have the new thing. In order, to be happy we must be satisfied with what we've got because people in the other side of the country do not even though what an MP3 is. We are blessed.

Technology in my life is very important but not to an extent were I always have to have the newest technology. Technology is enables me to have an education, a life, and simple entertainment. My days revolves around technology for without it I will not be able to function. School involves technology for without it I cannot finish this Blog unit. Technology has enabled me to talk to family and friends all over the world in a matter of seconds and keeping in touch with these people faster is very important for me. I can't live without computer, telephones, and almost everthing else because as I said my life needs technolog. However, I do not always have to update my self with the newest technology, I try to be content though it is hard by nature. For example, I really want a new laptop because my present one is out of date (IBM Thinkpad T23) and soon it will have to retire, but I have to learn contentment and be satisfied that I am able to go to school with a laptop and finish work with it, people in other parts of the world are not blessed with such technology.

In conclusion, people are not happy because they need to learn to be content and satisfied. Technology is fast and evolving but that doesn't mean we have to be mad for the things technology does not do for us but instead appreciate and acknowledge that we have these things. We should not take technolog for granted.
