Hi Tech Futuristic Hotels


I have finally found something worth sharing in this space... a peak into the future hotels that claim they will be offering virtual love making, dream management and high tech contact lenses to their guests.

It was revealed through a published study titled, 'The Future Of Sleep' done by Ian Pearson who is an engineer and futurologist. The hotel chain Travelodge in UK conducted this study. They claim hoteling experience will change completely by 2030 through this study.

Pearson said that technology will monitor guests energy levels, health and mood to ensure they get a good night's sleep. Even medical conditions could be diagnosed via this technology. Dreams could be controlled in the future and learn new languages while we are asleep in the coming years.

Dreams will look like reality and one could replay their favorite dreams again and again from a menu. This also means one could enjoy being with different partners in their dreams and feel as great as if it is all real. Virtual love making would allow partners to enjoy intimacy even when they are away from their home or not together to put it simply.

According to Pearson, we will then live in an augmented reality. Our real life will be integrated with the digital world and one could views television on any surface of the hotel. Besides, all these features will not be expensive also.

It does sound like some movie but the study is very confident using the engineering approach that this would indeed be the future. Actually, I have seen so many movies on these lines about the future that I do feel all of this will happen pretty soon with the advancement of technology but it would all be so unreal and fake.

I don't want to live in those times. Perhaps it is because I have lived in a time when things were not so hi-tech so I know what it is like to live without them. But the younger generations do not even have a clue of a life without technology. Such a future is going to be a major attraction for them and they would certainly prefer to enjoy augmented realities.

It looks like the future generations will almost let go off the reality in those times. Things will be even more high-tech as explained by this study. It will not just be the hotels but everything will be like that. Honestly, I find it creepy but it is destined to happen if the world survives by then.

When ignorant people see someone


When ignorant people see someone who is old, they are disgusted and horrified, even though they too will be old some day. I thought to myself: I don't want to be like the ignorant people. After that, I couldn't feel the usual intoxication with youth anymore.

When ignorant people see someone who is sick, they are disgusted and horrified, even though they too will be sick some day. I thought to myself: I don't want to be like the ignorant people. After that, I couldn't feel the usual intoxication with health anymore.

When ignorant people see someone who is dead, they are disgusted and horrified, even though they too will be dead some day. I thought to myself: I don't want to be like the ignorant people. After then, I couldn't feel the usual intoxication with life anymore.

A Quote by Siddhartha Gautama Buddha


"When ignorant people see someone who is old, they are disgusted and horrified, even though they too will be old some day. I thought to myself: I don't want to be like the ignorant people. After that, I couldn't feel the usual intoxication with youth anymore.

The Happiest Man of America


Researches have found the happiest man of United States. He is 65 year old Alvin Wong. Alvin is a married Chinese-American, Kosher observing Jew who lives in Hawaii.

Alvin was contacted after three years of a Gallup Well Being index survey asking Americans about their emotional status, job satisfaction, health, stress, diet, food intake and many other indicators of well being.

Alvin Wong's profile and characteristics were almost perfect enough to consider him as the happiest man of America. First things first, he lives in Honolulu, Hawaii, the happiest state of America. Apart from that, his over all personality and traits such as his height (5 ft 10 inches), his age (65 years) and his over all wealth ($120,000 a year) are quite significant in making him stay happy. Alvin is a healthy and happy man with no stress levels as he earns quite well by running his own health company business.

Alvin says if you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to be pretty terrible for you.

Anyhow, this has a lot to do with the over all conditions. Where people reside plays a key role. The richer more beautiful states had happier people while states such as Mississippi, Alabama, West Virginia and Kentucky had people that were quite sad, emotionally stressed out with terrible health.

An interesting insight though is that happiness begins at the age of 50 for both men and women as per the study done by Stony Brook University, New York. This study states that stress levels, anger and anxiety fade as you turn 50 years old.
