New and Old

‘Necessity is the mother of invention’.  We have evolved from the stone age days to the present day. We have come so far in this journey of development and we shall continue to do so, because this is what we live for. It is nature’s law, adapt and survive. Therefore, it has become more vital for us to keep inventing new tools and techniques for the betterment of the humanity. Some like it as in traditional way and some want to move on this path of adventure.

We cannot deny the fact that modern advances have made our life much better than precious days of cave man or the tribal environment. We are now more protected from the dangers of past. No doubt, humans have created many destructive forces such as nuclear weapon which can wipe out the life from the face of the earth and we have to be more careful about it and make sure that such forces remain contained. But, on the other hand, this nuclear energy provides us cheap energy.

It is all about intention, how one is going to apply it. Modern technology thrives on the old one, their basic principle resides in the classics but is not it that we wanted to make things better. We should respect the old but the new change was required. It is inevitable to keep the distance from modern transformation with keeping the old soul alive inside.

It is like, no one has got rid of ancient and traditional methods, they went through a transition to fulfil the current needs. What we have today is from the wisdom of yesterday and a gift for tomorrow, therefore it is called as ‘present’.
