   In a lot of ways life is easier right now than in any other time in history. We have computers,cell phones and many devices and machines that do some of our work for us. In another way,life is more chaotic now. In general,I think we have it easier than our ancestors did.

   We have more tools now than back then. LetJs say I want to make a 2,800 sq ft house today. With all the tools I have,it would take about 6 —8 months,but if you wanted to make one back then,it would take about 1. 5 —2 years. That is why life is easier.

   I think kids’ lives are too easy. They are simply lazy. All they do are text and complain. We’ve all heard the stories that our parents and grandparents would tell of how hard life was when they were young,having to walk to school,having to eat salt-pack food because there were no freezers,having to cover meat in lard in order to keep it from spoiling,having to milk the cow every morning for fresh milk to drink and/or having to travel by mule for days to get to the “market” to buy something they needed.

   Earlier,the kids used to die when common diseases like cholera,jaundice,etc. caught them. Now,we have medicines to treat them. So,modern life has expanded our life span. There are even medicines to treat great diseases,which helps to increase the life span of humans. Earlier people used to destroy the environment without knowing the consequences. But now we know the bad effects of it. So,today's life is much more easier and better.

                       Title: Life now is 1 than before.
