People have become overly dependent on technology which has been continueing to be in people’s life and whose effect on people’s daily life is an undeniable fact. Many people benefit from technology in most of their lives, especially the internet provides convenience. The internet has started to take place in people’s life with the development of technology.

People take advantage of technology while interacting with each other on social websites, improvements in medicine and educational equipments.
To begin with, there are lots of social websites which are continueing to gaining popularity every passing day. Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, Formspring are among the most-known and used social networks. People share their own personal information on this websites and they communicate with each other via these networks. Moreover, most people download these websites’ shotcuts on their mobile phones in order to access easily. When went out, it can be easily seen that most people are talking about current news about Twitter or Facebook.
Furthermore, technology provides people healthier lives. Thanks to the innovations that take place in medicine, illnesses are diagnosed earlier than before, therefore, treatment becomes less demanding. Early disease recognition affects people’s life in a positive way. Even the disease is diagnosed in later stages, the healing is ended up positively by virtue of developments in medicine.
Finally, technology affects education in a good way. Most teachers use projectors, computers, overhead projectors in order to show audio visual educational aids in the class.

All in all, it is explicit that the effect of technology on people’s life is an indisputable fact. Its facilities make people dependent on it. Particularly the development in the internet, medicine and education impress people because they can easily see that teachnology enable them conveniences.

Optimism


   Every person’s expectation from life and everyone’s point of view about life are different from one another.  While some people live optimistically, the others live pessimistically. This situation is related to people’s lifestyle habits. Optimism is ‘’ A feeling that good things will happen and that something will be successful, whereas pessimism is a feeling that bad things will happen and that something will not be successful Oxford Dictionary). There are distinctions between these two terms and there are also benefits of being optimisic.

   To begin with, there is a huge difference between being optimistic and being pessimistic. Optimism is a condition of thinking the most hopeful view, on the other hand, pessimism is a condition of thinking the worst view. Pessimist people do not have any expectance from the future, they always complain about their status, yet, optimist people get the utmost enjoyment from their life. In other words, optimist people prefer to look the full side of the glass.

   In addition to contradistinction between pessimism and optimism, there are also some benefits of being optimisim. First of all, it gives people reason for living and it promotes healthy living for people, thus, people’s self respect develop with the positive thinking. Moreover, it creates positive attitudes towards other people and this makes optimist people to be loved. Lastly, it enhances effective communications, therefore, optimist people’s social life is improved.

All in all, being optimistic is significant for a person’s life because it creates positive ecpectations and it also promotes positive relationships. It also enables people to produce an alternative ideas for dififcult situations. I believe that nothing is impossible with the positive thinking. As Helen KELLER has said ‘’Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement; nothing can be done without hope.’’
