Modern versus Olden

Standard

The other day I was walking around Carrefour and it suddenly it hit me that there were so many varieties of technology and equipment being sold. It got me wondering how modern humans like us have evolved to be so much more reliant on technology.

Is it a good thing? Would we be able to survive without these equipment to aid us in our daily lives? Are we really considered independent beings if we are actually dependent on our technology and equipment?

I think not.

Our ancestors from olden times must have been way more independent than we are. They found discovered natural ways to carry on their daily lives, for example, creating fire by rubbing two stones against each other so that they could cook.

Looking at the modern us: with the ongoing flushes of technology and equipment, we have gotten more dependent and lazier than ever. Does that mean that in the future there is no need for an actual library because all the information in the world will be on the Internet? Will there still be parks and wildlife, or will they be reduced to mere images on the Internet?

If we were thrown back in time; if the earth dies, will we still be able to sustain ourselves or will we die along with the technology?
