A group of people tend to think that nowadays we have large scale of various
choices
in our
life
. I want to argue that I’m totally agree with
this
statement and I will explain it in the following essay.
In compared to past decades, today we can see a lot of differences in every aspects of our
life
. There are various types of facilities and
options
in every sides of modern
life
: in everyday
life
, in science or even in the culture. I want to explain it in an example: In the past, many people tended to have a farm, with extended family. There were about 4-5
children
with their grand parents. Almost every boy in a farmer family, had to continue his father’s job and there were not a lot of other
choices
. He became farmer as his father and he stayed at that farm with his wife and
children
and
this
endless circle continued. But nowadays, that young man has a lot of
choices
: continue his education, get a different job and has his home with his nuclear family.
Besides
none of his family members expect him to continue his father’s job and stay with extended family.
There are
also
different types of
choices
in everyday
life
and I would argue that most of them are due to technology. I want to continue with that example: please imagine the mother of that farmer family; she had to do many tasks by herself or eighter with her daughters or servants. Some work like taking care of little
children
, washing the dishes or clothes, cook meals and etc.
Thus
, she had no time for herself, she had no other
options
to decides what to do.
In contrast
, a mother in these days, takes her
children
to kindergarten, put the dirty dishes and clothes in the machine, orders the meals online etc. I mean all of these are
options
that one person can choose them for having more spare time and
also
just in spare time, there is a large number of various activities that a person can select to do, because of the technology.
In conclusion, I would say that in these days, with all these different facilities, we have many
options
to choose. We can do many things and our experiences in doing various types of things, are really incomparable with old times.
