The World Around Us

Today we watched a video on the rapidly developing world around us. One thing that really struck me was that 1 in 4 couples that were married in the past year met online. This made me kind of sad cause I feel like just an online profile doesn't define your soulmate, ever heard of opposites attract? I feel like they would connect on some levels but then realize there's no passion behind it because they didn't meet on a face to face level. Also, the video described how we could possibly be preparing kids for jobs that don't even exist yet. This amazed me that our technology and intelligence advanced so much in matter of just a few years over time. I was also overwhelmed when the video stated that I would most likely have at least 10 jobs by the age of 38. That age isn't even middle age and i will already have worked for 10 different companies maybe even more than that. These jobs could also be in completely different fields of business and I'd probably have a hard time keeping up with it. This video taught me that our world is already 10 steps ahead of us before we even have the idea of the future. We are changing almost as fast as the world around us and we don't even realize it until it's gone.
