If one were to ask the average person if 2009 feel like it was a very, very long time ago – odds are the answer you would get is “no.” At a quick glance the world we live in today seems to be more or less similar to the world we lived in then.
And sure, insofar as the world has avoided any major cataclysms or apocalyptic events in the last seven years it is mostly the same place. But if one zooms in for a closer look and reflects on the world we live in now vs the world we lived in then – it becomes clear that maybe they aren’t quite so similar after all.
