A lot can happen in 10 days. Governments can fall, fates can change and the photo of an egg can become the most liked Instagram post. So it’s logical to assume that the changes in 10 years would be far more significant, right? Well, maybe not.
Internet’s new viral challenge that has netizens posting photos of 2009 and 2019 side by side proves that some things never change. They only refine with age. Many celebrities have joined in and shared their comparison pictures. And I think they’ve successfully halted the process of ageing. There are a lot of people who uploaded pictures of pets and of course, there were some funny ones in the mix too. Have a look.

As with anything that takes over the internet, there were some people who were unimpressed by the #10YearChallenge. Their argument is that we haven’t changed all that much, only the filters are getting better. Also, there’s makeup and plenty of other beauty products out there.
Do you guys agree with the nay-sayers? Or would you like to participate as well?
