Looking back at how the world has change now, and thinking about how life use to be in past years I was amaze how lot of things has change so fast.
Twenty years ago I learnt that less than half of the world's population lived in urban areas but now 55% of people live in urban areas and internet has changed the way we do everything.
It's hard to imagine a world without the internet today because the world is now digital and a lot of people are learning digital skills but it wasn't the case 20 years ago.
Today, the internet has transformed our lives, from the way we communicate to how we consume news. In short, social media has taken over because 20 years ago it was hard to see people using social media or making use of phones but presently now things have change and 99% of people in the world make use of social media.
Another thing that change over the years is technology and it has made life easier, faster, better and more fun. Technology improves people's lives in many aspects. It's easier to go to work and performed household chores because there are various gadgets and equipment that help people do some work and live their life conveniently. For instance, presently most people use a grinding machine to make pounded yam which is a typical Nigerian swallow food that is supposed to be pounded on mortal making use of a pestle.
After talking about the positives the change in the world has done what about the negative? Presently now there are people that social media and technology affect their lives because they didn't use it the way they are supposed to and a lot of people are addicted to social media that they don't have time to do what they are supposed to do at a particular time because of the effects of social media on them. So, should we say now say the changes in the world for the past 20 years has done more harm than good? Well, to me it has done more good than harm.
Thanks for reading.
