It is said we are living in a modern life. what do think we have in a modern life comparing to an underdevelopped country? In my opinion a modern life mainly means having a broad mind. we have a balance in our thinking ways for example a modern person will not apply everything that is present in his/her culture. In previous generations woman weere getting married at early age. But nowadays people will not still consider this fact instead girls need to be highly educated and become independent before maariage.
There are many others things similar which differs from a modern life to a previous generation one. What is your opinion?

yes monalily. but have you tried to feel the heat of the sun today? my grandma told me, in their time, they wash clothes in the river enjoying the clean water, pure breeze of the air and warmth of the sun. but now, there were lots of impurities and the massive destruction of mother earth. i hope, in our own little ways we could help minimize the outgrowing global warming. another one that i can also add, about marriage life today is not that strong and not last longer. a little fight, tends to divorce, the one who greatly suffers were their innocent children. the result was a broken family. i still looked up to the relationship of my grandparents until now, they are strong and loves each other. if modern life, has advantages in our daily living, i guess with regards to our interpersonal and environment, it greatly affects us. :)
