We judge the world in terms of 'Yesterday' but the world is living in 'Today'! *Mind, perception and our would - all these are so different in each one of us. Sometimes it surprises me a lot seeing how fast the world is changing, how much we are coping. No need to say that we are behind.* Maybe because we have a mindset of yesterday, we see the world what happened in past. And why not it be? We will judge, see the world based on our acquired knowledge. So when I see something different, conflicting with my perception I ask myself, how can I keep up? How can I live in this today? Not necessarily I have to accept everything. Yes, that's what I believe. But it's necessary to keep up. What do you think?

It made many things clear to me. Some were scattered way in mind but not these clear. ***There are so many things changing every day; how people like to identify themselves, how they are contributing to the world. It's not anymore like even what we used to think a year before. So many social media platforms, so many content creators, so many things happening and changing the world.*** You can always judge, I do judge. But that will not stop the change nor will end the world to go the way it was yesterday. It sometimes feels like all our belief, our understanding, and perception is falling. Is there any other way rather than trying to be in 'today'? Maybe not. *Especially when I think about our future generation, it made me feel more about it. What if I fail to understand my son? What if his world would be totally different? It will happen, no one can stop it. So one thing I need to make sure, you need to make sure to better understand this world is to change as well.* I'm not saying I have to accept everything, I will not. But I sure need to come out from my 'yerterday' thoughts.

We have to learn to stop living in the past and focus on what's ahead of us.
Thanks for the wise advice. :)
The past should not affect your present and don't worry too much about your future. Live consciously.
I agree with what you said. Well, I usually don't do that actually. What I meant is our mindset judges the world by yesterday. Like how everyday social media trends are changing and we see many things negative. But who are the Z generation they see the world differently, right? Anyway, thanks for your advice.
The Gen Z, not all of them siguro sis but unfortunately most of them.
