What is Love?



Have you ever read about a Japanese dog ‘Hachiko’. It’s known for his passionate faith and love towards his master. He had been taken as a pet by an agricultural professor and their daily routine was to greet the master in the railway station where he left for his work. The dog would wait till evening and took the master back home. This was happening for a year and one day the master didn’t return and the dog was given away to other person. But the dog escaped from them and came to the railway station and waited for him for nine years and died at the same place.  I often wonder how this entire world is being driven without any pause. Everyone believes in some spirit that takes their life along a predetermined path. The spirit may be god, money, power, etc, which rule this world according to ones belief. But for me, the spirit is love. Can anyone define love in a sentence, or phrase, or paragraph?  
Can it be defined as an emotion of strong affection towards something or someone? What does this strong affection make a person to do? Only the love towards the master made the dog to wait for nine years for a non-returning master. Love has its own demonstrating historic monuments, poems, quotes, narrations and stories. But beyond these demonstrations, some unsaid emotions and feelings stand ahead of them. We all know humanity, kindness, compassion, love etc, are qualities of human, but this is often expressed more by non-human stuffs. Hope you have heard of a tree and a girl, who daily speaks to the tree. One day she got a job and left her home, she bid good-bye to the tree. But the tree could no longer bear her absence and started to shed off and finally dried. We may think these are exemptions, but love is also an exemption to be considered against hatred and furious situation. 
Only the love of god is keeping us in this horrible world against all our sins. Only the love of our parents is keeping us to live a better and comfortable life against our mischief and betrayals often. So take an oath to show love and kind to everyone as much as possible, because you will not lose anything when you smile at a poor stranger, hug a deserted dog, hold the hands of an orphan kid, which are more than million dollars of money.

Dubai to Welcome Tourists With Mandatory Tests and Tracking App – Or a DH 10,000 Fine

British tourists will be soon able to holiday in Dubai again, as the UAE prepares to throw open its doors to holidaymakers following one of the strictest lockdowns in the world. From July 7, tourists will be able to travel to Dubai, but they will have to meet a raft of stringent conditions or face heavy fines. About 1.5 million Brits visit the UAE every year, but the Covid-19 lockdown saw an almost complete shutdown of the tourist destination, with just a handful of flights repatriating citizens to their home countries. Visitors will now have to get themselves tested for Covid-19 no more than 72 hours before their flight, privately in the UK, and arrive in the Emirates equipped with a certificate showing they have swabbed negative - or they’ll face testing and self-quarantine on arrival. They’ll also be made to download a government’s tracing app to their mobile phone.  Those who don't follow the strict guidelines could see their holiday costs increase dras...

Australian scientists discover how to turn air into electricity

A group of researchers from Monash University in Australia have made a breakthrough in renewable energy by discovering an enzyme that can generate electricity from the air we breathe.  The enzyme, called Huc, is found in a common soil bacterium and can turn hydrogen gas into a current that can power small electronic devices.  The researchers suggest that this technology could power devices such as medical sensors, wearable exercise monitors, or small computer circuits that run passively on air.  Huc has the potential to replace batteries that consume scarce resources, including rare earth elements.  However, the researchers believe that the enzyme would not be a viable way to produce large amounts of electricity and would be best suited for low-voltage power supply applications.  The researchers seek investment to develop this technology further and hope to see it on the market within a decade.
