Individual greed and selfishness has been the basis of the modern society. Some people think that we must return to the older and more traditional values of respect for the family and the local community in order to create a better world to live in.

Since nowadays’

society

is based on individual

self-interest

and ambition, some

people

argue that

people

should put more importance on conventional

ideals

Use synonyms

that value family and the

a better place.

However

, I disagree with

this

idea because

first

Linking Words

, it is an inevitable natural process that traditional values fade into the mists of history.

Secondly

, even though

people

restore old-fashioned concepts that respect family and local

society

, there is no guarantee that the world will be a greater place to live.

To begin

with, a situation where traditionalism disappears and

individualism

emerges is now an inevitable flow in the whole world. There is a plausible reason why conventional

ideals

die down whereas

individualism

gets settled. In fact, the word “Individual greed and selfishness” are just another degrading expression of

individualism

Use synonyms

, and to be specific,

individualism

Use synonyms

is one of the “lifestyles" in modern

society

Use synonyms

that pursues individual

self-interest

in fairness. The reason for the new lifestyle settling down is that the generation who experienced the time when

society

valued conventional

ideals

Use synonyms

have realized how meaningless and obsolescent the

ideals

are.

In addition

, that generation is now well aware that the development of one

(can derive from/is based upon) personal achievement which was so-called individual selfishness or greed.

For example

Secondly

, even though traditional beliefs that emphasize sacrifice for family and community are being revived, there are no certainties for a promising future for the world. In the past, traditionalism was a basic ideal in that days. The

people

in that days put the highest value on their service to family and community.

However

Linking Words

, the period that prioritized family or community over individual

self-interest

Use synonyms

is not regarded as a better or more peaceful time than now, because, despite the fact that the prosperity of the time was based upon personal sacrifice, those

people

cannot get proper rewards or appreciated enough for their services. In conclusion, I firmly believe that

individualism

Use synonyms

which means the appropriate pursuit of

self-interest

Use synonyms

should be the

first

ideal over traditional beliefs in modern

society

Use synonyms

because the concept of “

individualism

” is an irreversible global flow.

Also

Linking Words

, the older days, when traditional beliefs have important meanings, are actually proved as not so peaceful or a better place to live in.

Consequently

, there is no use in reviving obsolescent

ideals

in modern
