The
“Dark Age” for me was during my childhood days. Globalization then, was not yet
that evident. I remember when I used to play patintero, Chinese garter, hide
and seek, lukosong tinik and many other games during that time. Compared to
other kids today, I am grateful that I was not like them because I was able to
experience these great things. Kids now, even at a very early age own Ipads,
laptops and cellphone, which I think is not appropriate. They should be
enjoying their childhood and should not be ruining their precious 20/20 vision.
Modern
day Globalization really made our lives a lot easier. It made travel from one country
to another faster and cheaper, made communication easier, and a lot more things.
Through Globalization, things we thought
that were impossible to happen happened. It indeed, changed the world
drastically and really influenced who I am this moment. Now, I can’t even
imagine myself surviving without the products of Globalization. Life will be so
hard. Though people in the past survived without these gadgets, the world then
was very different from the world today.
Like
everything else, Globalization cause negative effects too. But if I were to
choose either to go back to the “Dark Age” or not, I think I’d choose not to
because of the huge role Globalization played in the world. Like what I have said earlier, maybe what we
just need to do is to find ways to alleviate or solve the negative costs of it.
We should try it and might get great results.
I
was able to gain more knowledge and became more critical, with all these
missions. These made me realize that even if I am just a mere Filipino college student;
I can do something relevant with my own simple and little ways. Indeed, mission
accomplished!
