I have just got back from the gym, had a massive piece of steak (yeah hooo) and now I am feeling bored but I don't want to my research project (Oh come on, I am having months to finish it). So decided to start my blog again. And today topic is wether the world is getting better or worst. Lets I start with a little bit of an introduction to why I suddenly want talk a bout this "debatable" topic.Yesterday, I was bored again (Hell on earth Ethan is always bored). I went on my whats app and see if there are anyone can save me from my boredom. Suddenly, I saw Adam nearly in the end of my whats app recent chat list. The last time I spoke to him was like a few years ago. Gosh he has beard now which is quite intresting haha (see his current picture).
So we start talking about everything that normal 2 peoples that have not seen each other for years. Things like job, friends, family, and etc. He also asked me about my study and job blah blah blah. So we were talking and talking then we come to current breaking news which the UK will vote the exit EU then we agued about social depression, economy and politics. In the end he made the strong agument that the world is getting worst.

If It were 2 years ago, I would have agreed with him and we would be in the same negative boat about the world. However, as I have gone through many different stages of my life as well as have learnt how to improve my happiness together with education I have recieved by many amazing people. I am super possitive about the world now and will be and so I argued with him that the world is definitely getting better. Ans this is what I told him:
"
Look Adam, We cure many diseases than ever before even cancer. As the result people live longer than ever before. We are making more money than ever beofore. We stay connected, travel and can do more things than ever before. I agree with you that we also have more people with depression but compare to what we achieved these are just minor side effects of the better world which will soon be solved by us as well.
"
Of course he didn't agree with my view but as I don't want it ruin our conversation so I ended it in silence. However, I strongly believe that the world is getting better and better. It is the perception of the new world is different from people. It is all about the perception of human being. Let's take a simple example, give a kid in Zimbabwe a bag of sweet, will that be his amzing gift ever?!. Do the same thing with an american kid, will be that just another cheap bag of sweet he/she can get from the super market?! Different background, social interaction and experience will define the perception of people of this new world. I personally strongly believe that the world is getting better and we in genaral are making the world a better place.

I would say that the UK is great and it full of opportunity and success.
It's not
It was a beautiful industrial country. Now i see it going to ruin.
Manufacturering jobs in the last 20years are slowly going as it cheaper labour. So now many are out of work. Those in work are not even earning the living wage. So are not spending money apart from the essentials to survive.
Shops are closing down, pubs and community centres are closing down. Poundlands and Aldi's are replacing them.
The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer.
As a result the poor man turning to crime as a means to get out of his/her situation.
There used to be community spirit and my mom would never lock the front Door.
We are all oblivious to what's actually happening around us and it also the same in America.
