In your opinion, what should be humanity’s goal?

Humanity’s goal should be to maintain the environment and leave Earth better than you found it. I only wish I’m not the only one in the family that sees it this way.

Are you hesitant to speak your opinions?

In real life, I am because I tend to overthink things and by the time I finally think of the right thing to say, it’d be too late. I am also hesitant to speak my opinion in real life because I live with someone (aka my mom) whose emotions can flip with a snap of a finger. It actually a few times in the last couple of days and it’s annoying and scary.

In what ways has society changed during your lifetime? What do you think caused these changes?

What caused those changes is something known as disruptive technology and oh yeah, I’ve seen plenty of changes in society during my lifetime and I think and know they are caused by disruptive technology.

The biggest change is definitely the phone. Everyone nowadays are always looking down at their devices and hardly anyone talk face to face anymore. It’s just sad especially seeing the newer generations evolve into this kind of human being.

We had a family dinner the other night and I watched my cousin stare at his phone throughout the meal. We were having hot pot and he didn’t even look up, just dipped his chopsticks into the food and grabbed what came up.

Then when my other cousin came home, said “hello,” before burying his face in his phone. What is there that’s so interesting that dinner conversation became nonexistent?

If you had a friend who spoke to you in the same way that you sometimes speak to yourself, how long would you allow this person to be your friend?

I would say indefinitely.
