Are people less happy with their lives than people were in the past?

In my opinion, people now are more happy and satisfied with their lives than people were in the past due to the fast changing world. Here are some reasons why:
First of all, the reason why the world today is changing so quickly is the development of new technology. Technologies like personal computers, smart phones and internet connection have changed our way of living to a large extent. They also makes our lives much more convenient and easy. I believe that people are happy with these new technologies.
Furthermore, I think that a fast-changing world could bring a lot of interesting things to people. In the past, people lived in a small village and everyday was just like the day before it. Nothing new happened. But today is totally different. Now the world is changing so quickly that there is always something new. People can always expose themselves to new stuff and never be bored.
Last but not the least, people today have been born in a world that is changing very quickly. Naturally, they get used to it and adapt well. Therefore, I don’t think it would make them less happy or less satisfied with their lives.
That’s why I disagree with the statement above that people now are less happier and satisfied because the world is changing so quickly.
These are only the grammatical mistakes. I hope the corrections help!
Also, I'd advise you to make your arguments more specific and to avoid repetition. I think examples could really help the quality of your essay too.
