‘’LIFE WAS
SIMPLER AND EASIER IN THE STONE AGE THAN IT IS IN MODERN SOCIETIES’’
We are going
to discuss this affirmation and I’m going to give my opinion about it.
As a citizen
of a developed society I don’t think this is true at all. First of all, we can
go to the supermarket or to the market and buy food; we don’t need to hunt an
animal to be able to eat, or we can go to a restaurant, and we don’t have to do anything. Not only that point, for example, if we are cold we are able to turn
on our heating system or if we need water we can open the tap or go to the
supermarket as well, and we do not need to go to the river. So life was not
easier because you always had to be looking for food and safe places, so if
you had to be looking for food I reckon you were not free, and freedom is very
important.
I agree with
the fact of ‘’simpler’’ because you just live for hunting and taking care of
your children and nothing else. Nowadays we look for material things, and we
always want more and more (unconsciously). Once we are auto realized, we want
to cover other necessities such as, in my case, clothes or cameras etc. So, I
think life is easier now but it was simpler in the past. Our brain and
mentality have changed so much that happiness is not reached by having some food
for eating. There are other important aspects.
