Modern life is pretty much a mix of good and bad. There are so many feelings we associate with our lives in the modern world. On the one hand, we are seemingly living on the pinnacle of comfort and happiness; on the other, modern life is fraught with the many tensions and anxieties that come with advancement. In this essay, we will look at all the effects, good and bad, that modern life has on our well-being.
POSITIVE EFFECTS OF MODERN LIFE:
More freedom
To begin with, modernity has brought about a lot more freedom. Especially for women, but it is true for all genders. Think about the lives of common people in times when monarchy was prevalent in most places. There was little to no freedom of expression, and people lived under the rule of thumb of their kings and queens, daily being subjected to the whims and fancies of their rulers. Rebellion was quickly suppressed, and it was only through much bloodshed that people got their demands met, if at all. Women, especially, were subjected to much torture. From witch hunts and sati to the more recent practice of no letting women vote, they were the especially oppressed lot. The advent of the modern age, however, put an end to such evil practices as people became more broad minded. Today, the third gender is recognized in their own right, and holds an important place in society in most countries.
Technological advancement
The contribution of technology in the advent of modernity cannot be undermined. Thanks to technological advances, we are today able to enjoy every luxury known to man. We live in air-conditioned homes and enjoy a varied and smooth transport system. We are able to communicate with people living in far off corners of the world, and can gather news about what is happening in distant parts of the world at a moment’s notice.
