Don't you just look around yourself sometimes and wonder how much the world has changed?  From our technology, lifestyle, mental processes and even up to our dressing. It's really amazing how the world has changed and if you look around you, it's really hard to pin point when we got so used to many things. There are so many things that we have today that we didn't have ten years ago, that today most people can't live without. 

The truth is life moves really fast and if you don't occasionally take some time out, you could possibly miss a lot of things. For example Uber app or Grab is something that has made movement very simple, these days you can get a ride anywhere in a particular state with just few taps on your smart phone. Although we could get rides before and get to our desired locations, it wasn't done this easily.

Another thing we didn't have back then was cryptocurrency, it's not yet acceptable world wide but with its debut less than ten years ago it's become worth over two hundred  billion dollars and is used in almost every Country in the world and has definitely made making and transferring Money a lot easier. 

The social media is also one of those things that were not to pronounced ten years ago but are today used world wide, with over two billion users. We use them for news updates, to communicate with loved ones all over the word and even used for many business purposes like advertisement. It is evident that social media platforms have become one of the most important things in our lively hood and is definitely not going anywhere anytime soon.

In the entertainment industry, one essential film released in the Marvel Cinematic Universe A.K.A MCU  was Iron Man in 2008, kick-starting an interconnected game plan of a very interesting motion pictures in which Marvel superheroes highlighted in autonomous movies associated with a more awesome plot animated by the record of its comic books. Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige went on to produce the Iron Man sequels, Thor, The Avengers and other films from the Marvel vault earning the movie studio $13 billion at the box office worldwide. 

Next up in the MCU, the Black Panther film, which opened in Canadian theaters on Feb. 16, 2018. It is obvious we didn't have this franchise ten years ago but it has built a lot of fans and today many can't even imagine a world without the Avengers even if it's fictional.

So it's obvious that a lot has changed over the last ten years and many more things will likely change over the next few years but one thing is important, it's difficult to keep track of things in this fast moving world. Sometimes we often hear people say 'time passed me by. ' the simple truth is time can be very illusive and it's difficult to fully know your way around. 

In reality, no one would have expected a lot of these things and it's very amazing the new things the New world has provided us. Although it has made us more comfortable and smarter, it also has its detriments. In the society of the new world, it's easy to find people who have become zombies, workaholics and many more. Many ask why?  

The truth is many of us have left the real world behind. Very few people find entertainment outside the internet these days, very few people are still interested in taking a stroll down to the beach or through a peaceful garden,few people still work hard to get in shape, many of them use technology and drugs to do that and only one thing causes all this, the new world.

We live In a world of unsatisfiables

Our desire keep increasing on daily basis.
For me, anything can entertain me as far as I find it "entertaining"

As the saying goes...

Change is the only constant things in this world.

I agree with you, it is fascinating to know that there are lots of things that doesn't exist a decade ago that people cannot live without it today.
