LIFE NOW IS BETTER THAN IT WAS 100 YEARS AGO. TO WHAT EXTENT DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT? GIVE REASONS FOR YOUR ANSWERS AND INCLUDE ANY RELEVANT EXAMPLES FROM YOUR OWN KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE.

We should be thankful to God for
such
a wonderful
life
. The moment humans started understanding the meaning of
life
,
life
become better for them, irrespective of time or place. If we compare
life
now, with the past 100 years. Definitely, the present will always be better than your past. But still, there are various points of discussion, which propel us to think that those days of
life
were better because of it's quality. I disagree with the statement that those golden days would never come back and are much better than
this
modern age of living. In ancient times, people use to live in mud houses, so there was no need for AC and the house was naturally cooler than new day's houses. Still, we can compare the old ones in some villages with city apartments. Apart from that, the food quality was so good that it was free of pesticides and all kinds of chemicals. Nowadays, whatever you eat is full of chemicals and the current generation is getting new kinds of diseases on daily basis. The most prevalent form of
that is
Cancer.
Although
we are using a lot of modern types of equipment and gadgets in day to day
life
,still our
life
is becoming more and more complex. In previous times, we did not have any kind of these things but still,we were happy by all means. In the current situation, we are forced to live nuclear because we are surrounded by so many things that we don't have time for our own children and parent. So to the conclusion, I believe that modernisation has changed our
life
drastically.
This
change gave us so many things but in reverse, it has taken back a lot of stuff
also
. Our
life
becomes easy in a way but at the same time, we became very lonely
also
.
