Albert Einstein: The case with Hilbert
- Riddhis Sharma - 26006, Grade ... 09 February, 2023

Albert Einstein, (March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Württemberg, Germany - April 18, 1955, Princeton, New Jersey, USA), German physicist who developed special relativity and general relativity and won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. Einstein is often considered the most influential physicist of the 20th century.

Initially, Einstein's 1905 paper was ignored by the physics community. This began to change after he got the attention of one physicist, Max Planck, perhaps the most influential physicist of his generation and the founder of quantum theory. Planck's admirable comments and experiments that gradually confirmed his theories soon led to Einstein's rapid rise in academia, where he was invited to speak at international conferences such as the Solvay Conference. He was offered many positions at increasingly prestigious institutions such as the University of Zurich, the University of Prague, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology and finally the University of Berlin. While his fame spread, Einstein's marriage fell apart. He was constantly on the move, speaking at international conferences, and immersing himself in relativity. The couple frequently fought over their children and meager finances. Convinced that his marriage was destined, Einstein began having an affair with his cousin Elsa Lowenthal, whom he later married. (Elsa was a cousin on her mother's side, and a cousin on her father's side.) When he finally divorced Mileva in 1919, he decided that if he won the Nobel he agreed to give her some money. One of his deepest thoughts that haunted Einstein from 1905 to 1915 was a serious flaw in his own theory. He didn't mention gravity or acceleration. His friend Paul Ehrenfest was intrigued. As the disk rotates, the edges of the disk move faster than the center, so (according to special relativity) a meter stick placed on the disk should shrink. This meant that the geometry of the Euclidean plane had to fail against the disk. During the next decade, Einstein was busy formulating gravitational theories related to the curvature of spacetime. For Einstein, Newtonian gravity was actually a byproduct of a deeper reality. The curvature of the fabric of space and time. In November 1915, Einstein completed his general theory of relativity. In the summer of 1915, Einstein gave six two-hour lectures at the University of Göttingen, in which he thoroughly explained an incomplete version of general relativity. The mathematician David Hilbert, who had organized lectures at his university and had corresponded with Einstein, had completed these details, as if the theory were his own. In fact, only five days before Einstein submitted his paper on general relativity in November. They later resolved their disagreements and remained friends. Einstein wrote to Hilbert: “I have battled the resulting bitterness with complete success. In the midst of our unchanging friendship, I am thinking of you again, and I would like to ask you to do the same.” Today physicists call the action from which the equations are derived the Einstein-Hilbert action, but the theory itself is largely attributed to Einstein. Einstein believed that general relativity was mathematically beautiful and correct because it accurately predicted the perihelion precession of Mercury's orbit around the Sun. His theory also predicted a measurable deflection of light around the Sun. As a result, he even offered to fund an expedition to measure the deflection of starlight during eclipses.

- Manaswi Sapkota - 26004, Grad ... 08 February, 2023

हिजो मात्र हाे मैले मेरा आमाबुवाको घर छोडेकाे दिन । मैले कपन छोडेँ । मैले धरानको कलेजमा छात्रवृत्ति पाएँ । मेरा आमाबुबाको चाहना थियो कि काठमाडाैँमा नै बसाेस् भनेर तर मैले आमाबुबाकाे काठमाडाैँ बसाेस् भन्ने प्रस्ताव स्वीकार्न सकिन । त्यो कलेजमा पढ्न ठूलो इच्छा थियो । राम्रो कलेजबाट आईटी अध्ययन गर्ने मेरो सपना थियो । मैले आग्रह गरेँ र आमाबाबुले अन्त्यतः जान अनुमति पाएँ । आफन्तको घरमा बसेर अध्ययन गराेस् भन्ने चाहन्थे तर छात्रवृत्तिको पाएकाले कलेजको छात्रावासमा नै बस्ने नियम थियो । बुबाआमालाई बिदाइ गरेर धरानतर्फ लागेँ । बिहान ९ बजे घर छोडेर त्रिभुवन विमानस्थल पुगेँ । म जहाजमा चढेँ र ४५ मिनेटपछि जहाज विराटनगर विमानस्थलमा अवतरण भयो । म ओर्लिएपछि बस समातेर आफन्तको घर गएँ । म केही दिन त्यहाँ बसेँ । अर्को दिन आफूसँग भएकाे सामान छात्रावासमा सार्न म र मामा गयाैँ । छात्रावासको कोठा सानो थियो तर चिटिक्क परेकाे र आरामदायी थियो । झ्यालको छेउमा नै एउटा ओछ्यान थियो ।  झ्यालमा कुनै पनि ग्रिल थिएन । खाटको अगाडि एउटा राम्रो आकारको टेबल थियो । खाटको छेउमा काठको दराज थियो । त्यो दराज पुरानो देखिन्थ्यो तर बलियो थियाे । अनि काेठाभित्र सबै हेरिसकेपछि मैले लुगाहरू निकालेर दराजमा राखेँ । दराजमा मेरा सबै कपडाहरू अटाए । मैले झोलाबाट किताबहरू निकालेँ र डेस्कमा राम्ररी राखेँ । भाेलिदेखि नै छात्रावासमा बस्नुपर्ने भएकाले म मामासँग नै घर जानकाे लागि तयार भएँ । घर फर्किनु अगाडि त्यहाँकाे अन्य वातावरणका बारेमा पनि बुझेर जान मन लाग्याे । त्यहाँकाे चमेनागृहमा गयाैँ ।  बोर्डमा विभिन्न खाने परिकारहरूकाे सूची थियो । जहाँबाट हामीले खाना अर्डर गर्न सक्थ्याैँ । 
म छात्रावासमा दिउँसो मात्र आएँ तर कक्षा भने बिहानदेखि नै लिएकी थिएँ । खाजा खाएपछि म तेस्रो कक्षामा गएँ । कक्षामा शिक्षक थिएनन् त्यसैले हामी विद्यार्थी मात्र थियौँ । म आफ्नाे कोठामा फर्किएँ । राति मैले चमेनागृहमा ( क्यान्टिन ) नै खाना खान गएँ । खाना स्वादिष्ट थियो । खाना खाएर  आफ्नो कोठामा फर्किएँ । मैले केही समय पढेँ र पछि मैले आज दिनमा भए गरेका सबै कुरा लेख्न थालेँ । आजको कक्षाहरू धेरै अल्छी लाग्दो थिए किनकि हामीले आज परिचय मात्र गरेका थियौँ । मैले केही नयाँ साथीहरू बनाएँ र मैले केही पुराना साथीहरूलाई पनि भेटेँ । आज एउटा कक्षामा जान खोज्दा म हराएँ । मलाई कम्प्युटर पढाइ हुने कोठा कता पर्छ भन्नेकुरा थाहा थिएन । म धेरै अलमलमा थिएँ । मैले पुरानो साथीलाई देखेँ । हामी एउटै कक्षामा पढ्थ्याैँ । त्यसैले हामी सँगै कक्षामा गयौँ । कक्षा सकिएपछि हामी सँगै खाजा खान गयौँ । पुरानो साथीलाई भेट्दा राम्रो लाग्यो । हामी ती पुराना दिनहरूका बारेमा कुरा गर्यौं, हाँस्यौँ । केही समयपछि हामी छुट्टियौँ  ।

Career Counselling
- Sunabi Pokharel - 25018, Grad ... 08 February, 2023

Counseling helps a person in decision-making by providing guidance, moral support, and exploring solutions for problems. A counselor is someone who understands human behavior, their personality and knows how to give the right direction to their thoughts. Similarly, in general term career counseling is a form of counseling focused on helping one understand oneself and work trends so that one can make an informed decision about career and education. Career Counseling helps manage a diverse range of problems such as low concentration levels, poor time management, trust issues with family to non-agreement between parents and children on which career to choose. 
So, why do we need career counseling? Everybody requires career guidance at one point in their life. It helps them get insights about themselves, their careers, and what they can do to improve themselves. This can help us choose the right path for building a successful career. Career counselors are experts at assessing the counselee’s aptitude, personality, interests, and other aspects. They use this evaluation to suggest and offer the best career options from all the available and relevant options that one can choose according to their interest and what they are good at. Career Counseling helps provide expert resources and knowledge that a career expert possesses. These resources are essential in helping parents and children make the right decision regarding their career paths. 
An individual's career path is unique and may not be what he/she expects or wants. This can make the path rocky and difficult to navigate. Career Counseling helps overcome these challenges by providing the counselee with the insight necessary for making informed choices about his/her career. This confidence gives the counselee greater perspective on how to achieve their goals, which in turn leads to success at work. A Career Counsellor helps students and professionals change their behavioral patterns that affect the quality, quantity, and efficiency of all aspects of their lives. They can help you break the bad habits that have been holding you back in school, college, or work, such as procrastination, lack of research on the latest developments in your career path, and emotional or mental health neglect. Getting a clear picture of your career goals is essential for a successful career, and choosing a career can be difficult. Career Counseling provides parents and children with a platform that allows them to vent out emotions, and provide solutions for their issues. 
Career Counseling for students can be provided during their late middle school and high school years. The perfect time to get career counseling is during the ages 13-17 years i.e. 8th standard to 12th standard. This is a time when many changes take place in their life; physical, mental, social, and emotional, such as transitioning from school to college and trying to fit in with peers. It is also the exact age when actual career decisions and choices are made. A person can get help with these decisions by seeking the services of a career counselor who will guide them in the right direction at this time. 
Hence, career counseling is something that helps you understand the career options that you have and how to pursue them. It helps students learn about their strengths and weaknesses with regard to their present course or profession so that they can make an informed decision about their future. Career Counseling also provides a platform for you to voice your opinion about what you would like to pursue, as well as discuss any obstacles that may be worrying you.

Isaac Newton - The Life of a Great Scientist
- Riddhis Sharma - 26006, Grade ... 07 February, 2023

Isaac Newton is best known for his theory of the law of gravitation, but his work "Principia Mathematica" (1686) with his three laws of motion greatly influenced the Enlightenment period in Europe. Born in 1643 in Woolsthorpe, England, Isaac Newton began developing theories of light, calculus and celestial mechanics during his break from Cambridge University.

He researched for years and finally concluded with the publication of “Principia” in 1687 which was a historical work that introduced the laws of motion and gravity. Issac Newton's second major book, "Opticks", explained his experiments to determine the properties of light.  He was also a student of biblical history and alchemy, and he was also the president of the Royal Society of London and the owner of the Royal Mint until his death in 1727. He was the son of a farmer who died three months before he was born.  He spent most of his childhood with his grandmother after his mother remarried. His education was halted because of an ill attempt of making him a farmer. Later,  he attended King's School, Grantham before getting admitted at Trinity College, University of Cambridge in 1661. He studied the classical curriculum at Cambridge, but  was also fascinated with the works of modern philosophers such as René Descartes, who was really famous at the time, so dedicating a set of notes to his external readings of René Descartes , he titled it as "Quaestiones Quaedam Philosophicae" ("Some Philosophical Questions"). When the Great Plague closed Cambridge in 1665, Newton returned home and began formulating theories about calculus, light and color, with his farm that first made him curious about why an apple falls to the ground when it is detached from the tree which later led to the finding of gravity. The debate over Newton's claims about the origin of the field of calculus had exploded into a controversy. Newton developed the concept of "flux" (differential) in the mid-1660s, although there are no public records of his work.

Meanwhile, the German mathematician Gottfried Leibniz formulated his own mathematical theories and published them in 1684. The debate continued even after Leibniz died in 1716. Scholars later concluded that both of the scientists probably came to their conclusions independent of each other’s theories.

Years of his research led to the conclusion that light is made up of spectrums of all colors. Even though he spent a large period of time concluding his research on gravity, Einstein’s theory took the spotlight and so he was not very popular at the time but nevertheless all of modern science is based on his research  so modern scientists really appreciate his efforts in the field of science.

Newton was also an eager student of the history and concept of religion, and his writings on these subjects were included into several books that were published after his death. Newton was never married and  lived the last years of his life with his niece at Cranbury Park near Winchester, England. He died in his sleep on March 31, 1727 and was buried at Westminster Abbey.

आज सम्मको यात्रा र भविष्यको योजना !
- Sunabi Pokharel - 25018, Grad ... 07 February, 2023

मलाई सानो उमेरको कुरा त्यति हेक्का छैन । घरका बुबाआमाले भनेअनुसार म पहिले युनिक नेपाल एकेडेमी नामको विद्यालयमा प्ले ग्रुपमा भर्ना गरिएकाे हाे रे । युनिक नेपाल एकेडमी (लोकन्थली, भक्तपुर) सँगको मेरो यात्रा त्यति लामो रहेन । मैले करिब ६ महिना त्यहाँ बिताएर बबरमहलस्थित हाउस अफ मन्टेश्वरी वल्ड्र स्कुलमा अध्ययनको लागि भर्ना गरियाे रे । त्यो समयमा म भर्खर ३ बर्षकी भएकाले उत्तिसारो धेरै सम्झना त छैन तर वार्षिक रूपमा स्कुलले आयोजना गर्ने अभिभावक दिवसको कतिपय भिडियो र फोटो अझसम्म सुरक्षित रहेको हुँदा त्यस अवधिका केही सम्झना आफूसँग रहिरहेको छ । जे जति समय र क्षणहरू सम्झन्छु त्यसलाई आफ्नो जीवनकाे रमाइला र सुन्दर क्षणको रूपमा सम्झिरहेकी छु । त्यो स्कुल साँच्चिकै राम्रो थियो । शिक्षकशिक्षिकाहरू अत्यन्त मिहिनेति र राम्रो हेरविचार गर्ने खालको हुनुहुन्थ्यो । मेरो बुबाआमाले भनेअनुसार मेरो जीवनको राम्रो आधार निर्माण हुनुमा त्यो स्कुलको ठुलो योगदान छ रे । त्यो स्कुलपश्चात मेरो यात्रा विद्या संस्कार स्कुलतर्फ अघि बढ्यो । उक्त विद्यालयमा विद्यार्थीको सङ्ख्या अत्यन्त धेरै थियो । एक कक्षामै १४० जनाभन्दा बढी विद्यार्थीहरू थियौँ । हामी ६-७ समूहमा विभाजित भएर अध्ययन गर्दथ्यौँ । कक्षा बढोत्तरी हुँदा फरक फरक समूह र फरक फरक साथीहरूसँग हेलमेल गराइन्थ्यो । पढाइको दृष्टिकोणबाट हेर्दा उक्त विद्यालयले विषयवस्तु र किताबी ज्ञानलाई बढी महत्त्व दिने गर्दथ्यो । परीक्षाको बेला पनि विषयवस्तु र कक्षाको पाठ्यसामग्रीबाटै प्रश्नहरू सोधिने गरिन्थ्यो । धेरै विद्यार्थी भएको हुँदा खेलकुद वा अन्य कतिपय विद्यालयले आयोजना गर्ने कार्यक्रममा सबैले भाग लिन पाउने अवस्था थिएन । तसर्थ म आफूले इच्छा भएका कतिपय कार्यक्रममा भाग लिन नपाएका थुप्रै क्षणहरू सम्झँदा कहिलेकाहीँ आफूमा निरासा पनि उत्पन्न हुने गर्दथ्यो । यद्यपि आफ्नो भाग्य भनौँ वा अध्ययनप्रतिको लगावले उक्त विद्यालयमा मैले १ कक्षादेखि ६ कक्षासम्म अध्ययन गर्दा कहिल्यै दोश्रो हुनु परेन । मेरो बुबा अलिक बढी ठट्टा गर्ने स्वभावको हुनुहुन्छ । त्यो बेला मैले दिएका परीक्षाको नतिजा लिन जाँदा जहिल्यै दोश्रो भएको सुन्न मन छ भन्नुहुन्थ्यो तर नतिजा पहिलो नै भएकाे आउँथ्यो । पढाइमा राम्रो नतिजा आउँदाआउँदै पनि मेरो परिवारले मलाई सोही स्कुल छाडेर किताबी ज्ञान बाहेक अन्य क्रियाकलाप पनि गर्न पाउने विद्यालयमा स्थानान्तरण गर्ने उदेश्य राखी विद्यालयको खोजी गर्दा हाम्रा केही आफन्तहरूबाट हाल म अध्ययनरत डियरवाक विद्यालय (जसलाई पछि मात्र सिफल सेकेन्डरी स्कुलबाट नामाकरण गरियो) मा अध्ययन गराउने निर्णय भयो । म कक्षा ७ देखि यही विद्यालयमा अध्ययन गरिरहेकी छु र अहिले  म कक्षा १० मा अध्ययनरत छु । 
यस विद्यालयमा प्रवेश गरेपछि मेरो जीवनको दैनिक दिनचर्या पूरै परिवर्तन भयो । कक्षा ७ मा नयाँ विषयवस्तुको रूपमा संस्कृत र चिनियाँ भाषा पढाइ हुन्थ्यो । आफू फरक विद्यालय र परिवेशबाट आएकी र त्यहाँ रहेका साथीहरू कोही पनि आफूसँग नरहेको अवस्थामा मैले सुरुका क्षणमा आफूलाई अत्यन्त एक्लो महसुस गरेँ । ठूलो विद्यालय, धेरै साथीसँगी र लामो समयसम्मको आफ्नो चिनजानबाट थोरै विद्यार्थी भएको स्कुलमा आउँदा आफूलाई गलत गरेँ कि ठिक गरेँ भन्न नै गाह्रो हुने अवस्था भयो । विद्यालयको पढाउने तौरतरिका पनि फरक थियो । विषयवस्तुभन्दा बढी बाहिरी क्रियाकलापहरूमा जोड दिइन्थ्यो । समाचार वाचन, समाचार लेखन, संस्कृत अध्ययन, कविता, कथा र विभिन्न रचनाहरू लेखनलाई विद्यालयले जोडतोडका साथ अघि बढाउँदा कतिपय अवस्थामा म आत्तिने गर्दथेँ । मैले यो विद्यालयमा आएदेखि सायदै रातको १२ बजेभन्दा अघि सुतेकी छैन । म कक्षा १० मा आइपुग्दा यही स्कुलको वातावारणमा अभ्यस्त भइसकेछु । मिल्ने साथीहरू पनि बनिसकेछन् । जे उद्देश्यले मलाई अघिल्लो पूर्वध्ययनरत विद्यालय छोडाइएको थियो त्यो उद्देश्य हालको विद्यालयबाट प्राप्त भएको आभास म र मेरो परिवारलाई हुन थाल्यो । म सार्वजनिक रूपमा बोल्न डराउँथेँ, लजालु स्वभावकी थिएँ; विभिन्न कार्यक्रममा भाग लिन सक्दिनँ थिएँ; कक्षाका पाठ्यसामग्री बाहेकको ज्ञान धेरै थिएन । यस विद्यालयमा आएको करिब १ बर्षको अवधिमा नै उल्लेखित कमजोरीमा आमूल परिवर्तन भयो । म सार्वजनिक स्थल तथा मञ्चमा उभिएर निर्धक्कका साथ आफ्ना कुरा राख्न सक्न थालेँ; विभिन्न रचनाहरु रच्न थालेँ; विभिन्न कार्यक्रममा भाग लिन थालेँ; थुप्रैपटक समाचार वाचन गर्न थालेँ । विषयवस्तुबाहेक बाहिरी ज्ञानहरूले आफूमा किताबी र व्यवहारिक दुवै ज्ञान प्राप्त भयो । यसर्थमा विश्लेषण गर्दा मेरो परिवार र म समग्र रूपमा सन्तुष्ट नै भएका छौँ । यो विद्यालयमा आएपछि म आफूलाई सधैँ केही न केही कुरामा व्यस्त पाइरहेकी छु । यसलाई म नकारात्मक भनौँ भने सायद यिनै कारण मेरो जीवनले सकारात्मक पाइला लिन्छ कि जस्तो लाग्न थालेको छ । हेनरी डेभिडले भनेजस्तै ‘जीवन व्यस्त हुनु भनेको उसकाे सफलताबाट आर्जित प्रगतिको परिणाम हो ।’ मैले मेरो यो व्यस्ततालाई यही रूपमा ग्रहण गरिरहेकी छु । जे होस् मेरो सिफल स्कुलको व्यस्तताको परिणाम पक्कै पनि पछि आउने नै छ भन्ने लाग्छ । यसर्थमा मैले आफूलाई भाग्यमानी र गौरवान्वित ठानेकी छु ।

यो विद्यालयमा अब भने मेरो थोरै मात्र दिनहरू बाँकी रहेको छ । हाम्रो एस्.ई.ई. को कार्यतालिका प्रकाशित भइसकेको छ । अबको केही महिनापछि मेरो यात्रा अर्को विद्यालयमा हुने छ । दश कक्षापछि अब कहाँ र के पढ्ने भन्नेमा मलगायत हामी धेरै साथीहरूमा अन्योल र छटपटी भइरहेको छ । कक्षा १० पछि ११ र १२ पढ्ने कि ए लेभल पढ्ने भन्नेमा अझै पनि दुविधा रहेको छ । यद्यपि मैले भने कक्षा १० पश्चात ए लेभललाई नै प्राथमिकतामा राखेकी छु । हाल आफूले अध्ययन गरेको विद्यालयको शिक्षणपद्धति र हालसम्म आफ्नो मिहिनेत र परिश्रमसँग ए लेभल नै मिल्दोजुल्दो लागेकाले पनि आफू त्यसप्रति आकर्षित भएकी हुँ । कतिपयले ए लेभल पढेपछि 
नेपालमा काम छैन, यो त विदेशको लागि मात्र ठिक हो भन्ने तर्कवितर्क पनि गरेको सुन्दै छु । यद्यपि कतिपय ए लेभल गरेरै देश तथा विदेशमा आफ्नो सुन्दर भविष्य निर्माण गरेको पनि देखिरहेकोले उल्लेखित तर्कलाई मैले कुतर्कको रूपमा लिइरहेकी छु । आशा छ मेरो सोचाइले भविष्य निर्माणमा योगदान गरोस् । यसका लागि म फेरि उही मिहिनेत गर्न तयार नै छु तर पनि डली पार्टनले भने जस्तो ‘आफ्नो भविष्य बनाउने नाममा आफ्नो जीवन नै बर्बाद हुने गरी व्यस्त हुनु पनि राम्रो होइन’ भन्ने कुरामा म सधैँ सचेत नै हुन्छु ।

Oprah Winfrey
- Smriti Lama - 25015, Grade X ... 06 February, 2023

Oprah Winfrey was born on January 29, 1954 in Rural Town of Kosci Mississippi. She is an American talk show host, television producer and an actress. She had great speaking skills and intelligence and these were encouraged by her grandmother and her father. She got a full scholarship to Tennessee State University where she studied communication. At first she worked in a local radio station and later on she moved to a local Nashville station. After that she became the youngest news anchor and the first black female news anchor.  After some years she relocated to Illinois and took over hosting duties of AM Chicago. Oprah Winfrey was crowned Miss Black Tennessee in 1972. She stopped doing beauty pageants when her career took off. She started her own production company called Harpo Productions. And in September 2002, Oprah Winfrey was named the first recipient of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Bob Hope Humanitarian Award. The Oprah Winfrey show aired for 25 seasons from 1986 to 2011. In 2011 he launched her own TV network named “The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN)” which ran for 25 years. With its placement on 120 channels and an audience of 10 million people, the show grossed $125 million by the end of its first year of which Oprah Winfrey received 30 million from.

In 2004 Oprah Winfrey signed a new contract to continue The Oprah Winfrey show. At the same time the syndicated show was seen on nearly 212 U.S. stations and in more than 100 countries worldwide. And in 2009 Oprah Winfrey announced that she would be ending her program when her contract with ABC ended in 2011. After some years Oprah Winfrey contributed immensely to the publishing world by launching her “Oprah’s  Book Club'' as part of her talk show. Even after moving onto other projects Oprah Winfrey continued the annual tradition for the 20th edition in 2017 the list was featured on Amazon. After that she became the first celebrity voice behind Alexa. In 1997 Oprah Winfrey introduced "Oprah's Favorite Things'' an annual list of holiday gifts curated by the mogul on her talk show. In 2015, Winfrey bought a 10 percent stake in Weight Watchers (WW). She also became an advisor for the company and secured herself a seat on the board, and she appeared in TV ads as a spokesperson for the company. In 2017 Oprah Winfrey revealed that she had again lost 42 pounds, which she credited to WW. More than two years later she wrote a letter to WW members saying that she was diagnosed with pre-diabetes before her most recent weight loss journey but that her blood pressure and sugar were now under control. In June 2018, Oprah Winfrey agreed to a multi year deal in which she would create original content for Apple.

Benefits of Technology
- Aavash Malla - 26001, Grade I ... 03 February, 2023

In today’s modern world, people have been connected to each other mostly through the medium of technology. Perhaps it is because it is a more convenient, faster, and simpler method of communication. The benefits of technology are beyond our imagination. Technology is not just some way of communication from one person to another sitting at our homes; it is way more than that. Technology is used in almost every single thing that we use today. We use technology without even realizing it; almost everything we see in today's world uses technology, from very small to very large.If there was no technology, then the things that we are using right now would have never existed, and the things that we have imagined would also never come true. That is why technology is the greatest invention that humans have discovered. With the help of technology, we have learned about space. If we compare ourselves and our world to the past, then people in ancient times did not really know about space and other planets, but because of technology, we have discovered so many new things. We developed technology from scratch, and today that technology is developing at the fastest rate we have ever seen. But with the benefits of technology, there are some bad ways people use it, but it is all fine because of the security technology provides so that people do not do bad things or, if they do, they get caught. There are hundreds of thousands of benefits to technology, but we are not capable of utilizing it to its full potential. Another wonderful thing about technology is that it is very easy and available to use at any place at any time. Technology also reduces waste, and if we all do our work online, the world will gradually be cleared of trash and other unwanted items.With the help of technology, transferring money, making essential contracts, and other various things are pretty easy. There is a major improvement in health care facilities. Because of the rise of technology, with one click you can call a doctor or do a video chat with the professionals and talk about your problems. Better time management will result if everything is technological and all office work is done from home using technology.Studying is also very important for using technology, and technology can help us study even faster and in a better way so we can learn about new things while not moving from our room. We can connect with people living on the other side of the world with one click and do other work at the same time. With the advancement of technology, our lives also advance. Soon the world will go virtual, and most of the things of the future will be on your phones. The technology of the future is something that we all have been waiting for. These were just some of the benefits of technology that I could mention, but there are many more advantages of technology in the world.

Life is Unpredictable
- Joya Shrestha - 25004, Grade ... 02 February, 2023


"LIFE IS UNPREDICTABLE". Every second is precious. After learning about the Yeti Airlines’ flight crash on January 15th, 2023, I realized that our existence is uncertain, so we must live in the moment and enjoy all that we have. It is what it is; we can't even change it or go back in time. It is said that everything has its specific day; it might be sooner or later.
We are born on a certain day and die on a certain day. Everything has its time. It might sound scary, but it is life. We hardly know what might happen to us or our nearest and dearest within the next moment since life is so chaotic. Maybe this is the reason it is advised that we should always prioritize our relationships above our own ego. since we never know who we'll end up leaving behind after our final words. We could regret it for the rest of our existence if those final words were not acceptable. It will haunt us forever. We are so worried about our future, but what about the present? We should be able to go with the flow without feeling the pressure. We should have faith. We might be able to change the future, but we can't change the present, so we should be able to live for today, not for the future. Life is a beautiful game, so we need to be able to handle it. Talking about the crash of Yeti Airlines, the victims never knew that it was their last day, or that the Russian girl who came to visit Nepal knew that she would die here, or that we never knew that dark day might exist. Did the victims of the crash know about today's incident, or did those who canceled today's flight know that they just did their best to cancel the flight? The answer is no; we never know what might happen. Since the incident, these questions have been haunting me: what is the cost of living? Whose fault is it? How many mothers' wombs are weeping? How many houses lost their light of hope? How many dreams are burned with the body? I pay my respects to those who have passed away.
Don't worry about what's ahead; just cherish what you have, be grateful for what's gone, and prepare yourself mentally and physically for what's next. No matter how much money you earn, you'll never have another moment like this one. It's impossible to bring it back once it's gone. We only have the present, so make the most of it. The most important thing you can do for your or my life is to learn to live for today, because we will all die at some point. Life is unpredictable, a fact that is obvious. Value everything you have. You might end your life regretting everything you did in your life, so live for the moment.
