People always talk with nostalgia about the past years, memories that were so beautiful that the present age seems so ugly and unattractive, etc. While it is true that the past does hold beautiful memories, it is also true that there were many painful experiences that many people had to go through, including wars, diseases, conflicts, inequality, slavery, unjust practices, and the like.

Today, I came across a wild west movie on YouTube that was free to watch. It showed ladies alighting a train, and men just came up and carried them off without their consent, and made them slaves. People used guns freely, and lives were lost. Compared to those ages, the state of people is far improved in today's times. The dangers of being abducted have far reduced today, and people are held accountable with the help of modern gadgets.
Medicine and research have progressed so much that people can rely on them, and also on traditional medicinal systems like Ayurveda and naturopathy, and Chinese medicine. Several doctors have YouTube channels, and they give genuine advice on how to manage lifestyle diseases. So, people all over the world who benefit from such tips also spread the word through social media apps, and thus, the quality of life has improved a lot.
When you take the case for entertainment, modern technology has made almost all an expert in photography and videography. There are thousands of channels on the internet that people watch, and almost 20% of those are useful. Let's say you want to watch a video on how to repair a washing machine because your washing machine door is stuck. A search on YouTube will give immediate results, and you can follow the instructions and do the repair yourself, thus saving money and time. So, the present-day scenario is not that bad, right?
There are loopholes, though, and if one is not careful with online dealings and fraudsters, then it is easy to lose everything with just a click of the mouse. So, it is always imperative to be up to date with technology and be wary of such scams and spam. Also, be careful never to trust even friends with important passwords and digital lockers, and gadgets.
People often give the gadgets to children to make them quiet or to feed them while they are watching cartoons or shows. It is a bad habit, and not only that, but children might accidentally erase important files and data. So, never entrust official gadgets to children.
Whatever age it is now, enjoy the present moment and make the most of it because the present moment is a memory in the next. Time flies, and children grow up soon. It is the responsibility of the present generation to raise children to grow up well and to make sure that they are an asset to society.
Even if you do no good, refrain from harming other beings. Let the history books of the future record these times as life-changing and better than the past.
