Answer 1

No world stays the same; its just you change. World does not move, its you, who is moving. People change...things change.

You view things by standing on a certain point. If you'll move one inch left or right, your whole view will be changed. Scene stays the same; view changes.

Like, when we are happy whole world seems happy - When we are sad, nothing seems alive anymore.

Answer 2

The World does not really change. Individuals in the world change and as we do our perceptions and understandings of what is going on in the world around us can develop, mature... change. But the world as a whole stays basically the same. It cycles with time, but we constantly replay the same dramas, tragedies, comedies, musicals and other scripts over and over again... It's only the props that change. If you're looking at human STUFF then the world does look a lot different today. Our "advances" in "technology" make this world APPEAR very different. The world does seem to change noticeably during each of our lifetimes, but in the History of the World our lives are very brief. In the grand scheme of Life, Human interactions and the World in General has not changed much at all.

Answer 3

Of course it does. I think when I was younger we could never have considered the possibility of having a tiny telephone, which you could carry around, nor drive a car that looked like a spaceship (apart from bubble cars of course). record TV programmes at home and cook your tea in 5 minutes flat. Those were the days when you went out and left your front door unlocked and the house would be untouched and leave the car with the keys in, outside the corner shop and it would still be there when you came out. You could walk down the road and not worry about being mugged or shot. Religion and politics will never change however, and the resulting wars will still go on until Armageddon. As man gets more knowledgeable, the world will change.

Answer 4

We're in a continuous circuit of full movement. It's inevitable. Sometimes though, some of us are not as implied in the process of changes as others. We can maintain the same rhythm of life, but distance ourselves from awareness or exposure to outer environment. So we tend to wake up at some point, look around and wonder where we actually are. It's like waking up from deep sleep to find that everything you were familiar with is gone and every element in the world is misplaced.

Answer 5

I'm not sure that the world has changed that much. What has changed is our ability to see the news. With today's technology, the Internet and such we are able to see things in an instant that used to take days or even weeks, and at times not at all.

Answer 6

Yes, I agree with Mel; but also, and because of the instant attention, I think a lot of would be bozos are enboldened by the attention they would get and maybe go through with something that they may have supressed, under different circumstances.
