As people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, the ability of humans to think for themselves will surely deteriorate.

Technology, like any other field nowadays, is a weapon of two edges. This is decided according to the matters which we handle by this weapon. The good edge is shown when we use technology to communicate more with the world surrounds us but it becomes a destructive tool when we trust it more than our minds and put our minds in the second shelf.

Technology makes our life easier, more manageable and more comfortable. It saves us a lot of time and effort so many people rely on it for many jobs to be performed. Besides, technology usually satisfies us with its accuracy and perfectiveness. Every day there's something new in the field of technology. Every day technology fascinates us by the new inventions that invade our life so softly. Technology has the power to capture our minds and hearts and consequently put our trust in what it provides us with. Because the human mistakes can be avoided easily by technology, nowadays we trust technology more than ourselves. Even there are some jobs that can be only performed by the means of technology as these jobs exceed the ability of the human being like diving deeply into abyss of the ocean where the human can't withstand the aquatic pressure. Travelling into the space sometimes takes many of years that no human being can make this journey so instead we send a robot in a space vehicle to discover the mysterious planets circling around us. More simply, computers, mobile phones, dishes' wash machines and the electrical cleaners, all of them are gifts from the technology to the humanity. Yes, taking all of the above into consideration, we should be grateful to technology, but unfortunately this is not the whole truth concerning this technology. On the other hand, this technology may, in the long term, convert the marvelous human mind into a solid organ that just follows the instructions put for every set. Our minds would become lazy, less productive and more dependant.

This bad side effect of technology can be avoided if we save the technology only for the jobs that the human can't access or for the jobs that endanger the life of the human like diving deeply into the ocean or discovering the world of volcanoes.

Technology is just a material; it takes the shape that we give to it. Accordingly, if we handle it wisely, it will improve the quality of our live. But if we handle it frivolously, it will deteriorate the quality of our minds.
