Reflection
The way humans lived has been significantly changed by inventions. Many of us find it difficult to imagine life without those changes. The way people
live is something that has been affected by the inventions when they appear. We just hope that the inventions will bring us only positive effects and not
bring any chaos in us. Inventions are just something. Who could have thought that a simple idea or knowledge will bring a huge impact in our modern
world. And it makes me think that everyone can create an idea that will help our world to rise. The way we live today will evolve as long as there are
new problems to tackle and people are creating new solutions. Future issues still require solutions, and technologies still need to be developed.
