human life has gone through various eras that have lasted for centuries, starting from the stone age, gold, fiat to cryptocurrency. every age there must be a group of genius people to make the survival of mankind better.
Have you ever tried to compare your life today with the life of your ancestors 1000 years ago? if you ever did i would love to know what have you got? happiness or disappointment?
some time ago while enjoying coffee at a caffe, you know how Indonesians gather, someone wearing a neat shirt opened a conversation with an interesting topic, where he said that "our life today is very comfortable & more advanced when compared to the life of ancestors us", in my heart I muttered maybe what he said, but I didn't try to refute the opinion he put forward, I didn't want to argue because it would ruin the happy atmosphere when I held the spoon to brew coffee, I didn't plan to do something like that can spoil the calm atmosphere.
opinions that have been said by someone will all depend on point of view, for example, when comparing electric cars vs horse-drawn carriages, I believe electric cars will dominate, when compared to pigeons vs iPhone, I believe the iPhone will dominate, but have we ever imagined that our ancestors managed to be independent & advanced in their own way & in their time, today I will tell you that never "compare heaven vs earth" because the two will never be the same even if you try hard.
today we will easily be amazed by the skyscrapers in the UEA, but some other people will say the discovery of the ancient city built by the thamut people is more amazing, where they carved a rock mountain and made it a palace, for you which is more amazing?
if you have ever compared your present life vs the lives of your ancestors, then here you are doing a big thing that has no benefit to your life, now listen to me carefully, i will open your mind to walk straight without having to torture yourself with unrealistic comparison.
when you leave the house at night and then look at the sky, you find stars, full moon, sunset, rainbows, I'm sure you are amazed by the beautiful scenery, but don't you ever say that the sky is better than the earth, if you do that then you have forgotten the fact that the earth has diamonds, gas, coral reefs, birds, dogs and others, meaning that the sky has that beauty and the earth also has its own beauty in its own time.
Likewise with our lives vs our ancestors, never compare between the two, even though today we are holding an android to photograph the sky, it doesn't mean that our ancestors' lives were worse, but there is something to be said for cultivating gratitude, our ancestors have left there is a lot for us to learn, the pyramids, the city of thamut, farming and so on, even though as far as we know, in the time of our ancestors there were no universities that printed students every year, but they managed to do many things without a prof from harvard, our ancestors became talents in his time, and we become talents in Ours, to compare the two is an endless mistake.
so we can conclude that, our lives vs our ancestors are the same, if they don't have computers then we also never experience bartering, if our ancestors never use iPhones, and we never feel the greatness of pigeons in conveying messages, if Our ancestors never played PUBG, so we also didn't feel how to hunt a deer using a bow, actually life is the same, the only difference is prejudice.
if today we succeed in building technology, then our ancestors have succeeded in building civilization, so don't ever say that the life of your ancestors was left behind because that is not true, advanced thinking is an inheritance that is contained in DNA, if our ancestors did not think positively then our lives today very messy, thank the ancestors who have contributed to building civilization.
