What I Believe About Human Evolution

Human beings have come really far, from the time of living in caves and using stones, from using animal skin as clothes, I have watched movies related to the past generation and how life was in those years compared to this generation where we have access to many things, now we are using phones, internet, flying planes, and even talking to machines like AI and robot. This is what evolution is all about and it has hasn't stop, I believe we are still evolving, just in different ways now.

We can see that things are changing drastically, we are not living in the same world as before, we are learning new things everyday unlike in the olden days, we have full access to technology, life is more comfortable from using mortal and pestle to using of machine like blender and the likes, now we are exposed to so many things like social media and now we can adapt to any pressure that comes out of it, which is why I feel like the next part of our evolution is not about growing taller or stronger. It’s about what is happening inside us.

I believe the next step in human evolution should be emotional and mental. People are going through a lot silently. Some smile outside but they are crying inside. Some people are going through tough times and do not know how to explain it, everyone is running from being judged and this is breaking so many people in this generation, now I think we are going to grow into humans that can understand emotions more, that can handle stress better, that can talk about what they are going through without shame. Mental health will become more important.

Another thing I see is how close we are getting to technology. Before, phones were just for calling, but now phones are everything. People even forget to look up because they are always staring at screens. Some people already have chips in their bodies, and smartwatches are becoming normal. I feel like we are slowly changing to mix with technology. Maybe one day we won’t even need to hold phones things will just be part of our body. I don’t know how I feel about that, but it looks like it’s already happening.

The environment is also changing. Everywhere is getting hotter. Some places are flooding. Others are just too dry. I think our bodies might start changing too, to survive this new weather. Maybe we will sweat differently, or our skin will become stronger. I don’t know the details, but I know nature always finds a way.

Our way of thinking also needs to change. There is too much information everywhere now. It’s easy to know things, but hard to understand them. In the future, maybe our brains will become sharper not to just know things, but to think deep, to create solutions, to understand better. I feel that’s the kind of evolution we need.

And I really hope we evolve socially too. The way people treat each other these days is painful sometimes. There’s so much hate, jealousy, competition, and judgment. Everybody wants to show off or prove something. I think real growth will happen when we learn how to love, how to live in peace, how to support one another without expecting anything back.

If we can become people who are emotionally strong, mentally smart, kind to each other, and able to live with technology without losing ourselves, then I think that’s the best kind of evolution.
