Parent's Prior Life Or New Modern Life
In the past people had much time to live and enjoy their lives. There was no social media, internet, cell phones and other new technology that people are living with in modern life. Albeit, it was hard to contact each other and people had difficulties to do most of their routine life's stuffs, but on the other hand they weren't interrupted with technologies problems. Mostly, spending times on it.
In new modern life we have a positive point and that is new and faster ways to reach information and contact the world. In comparison with the past where people weren't able to access information and contact each other it is a great opportunity but we habituated the missing times in our new world and we became numb to it which is so bad. We don't have personal privacy and we cannot control our times. People can contact us wherever and whenever they want and we waste most of our time with new technologies.
After all, I think we should blend our parent's lives with new modern life with a lot of new opportunities to make a better life. we need to handle more and add much more time to our new life in a case of having time to live and enjoy our lives.

Parent's Prior Life Or New Modern Life
In the past people had (a lot of, or plenty of [informal] - ample [formal]) time to live and enjoy their lives. There was no social media, internet, cell phones or other new technology that people are living with in modern life. Albeit, [Albeit is too formal... I would say "Admittedly" or just take it out] it was hard to contact each other, and people had difficulty doing most of their routine tasks, but on the other hand they weren't interrupted by technological problems. Mostly, spending times on it. (This is not clear. Do you mean "Often spending time to solve them" [the technological problems]?)In new modern life we have a positive point -- new and faster ways to reach information and interact with the world. In comparison with the past where people weren't able to access information and contact each other it is a great opportunity. But* we became habituated to the missing times in our new world and we became numb to it. This is (bad [informal] / unfortunate [formal]). We don't have personal privacy and we have lost control our time. People can contact us wherever and whenever they want, and we waste most of our time with new technologies.
Finally**, I think we should blend the style of our parent's lives with new modern life which offers us new opportunities to make life better. We need to handle our time better and create more free time to live and enjoy our lives.***
* in formal writing, you should not start a sentence with a conjunction, but this sentence is too long. We call it a "run-on sentence."
** It's hard to explain whey "After all" sound funny in this position. You had the right idea."Finally" doesn't sound great either. When you put "After all" in that position, the next thing I expect to hear is an additional fact that was not stated before, not a summary of your argument.
*** Sorry for the big rewrite..
P.S., in the 1960s I visited Teheran on my way to Afghanistan as an exchange student. Farsi is a beautiful language and I wish I had studied it.
