Question

Please edit/correct the given text. Change it to make it more meaningful and to the point. Thank you.

Yes, I do have changed in all these years. I believe everyone ought to change with passage of time - this is what we would call evolution of human mind. Whether those changes are good or bad our actions will decide. If we don'd do this, then we are not doing justice with ourselves.

Yes, I have changed over these years, mentally, intellectually (which one fits better?). I believe that everyone ought to change with the passage of time - this is what we would call the evolution of the human mind. Whether those changes have good or bad outcomes, our actions will decide. If we don't allow these changes to happen, then we are not doing justice to ourselves. Because humans have natural potential to make themselves better as the river of time take them to greater distances.

Yes, I have changed over these years, mentally, intellectually (which one fits better? you can use both). I believe that everyone ought to change (does this change come naturally, or does one have to work at it?) with the passage of time - this is what we would call the evolution (evolution carries the meaning of change in a population, not in an individual) of the human mind. Whether those changes have good or bad outcomes, our actions will decide. If we don't allow (see earlier comment) these changes to happen, then we are not doing justice to ourselves. Because humans have the natural potential to make themselves better as the river of time takes them to greater distances.

Yes, I have changed over these years, intellectually and mentally (can I use mentally and intellectually side by side, i.e. ...over these years, mentally and intellectually?, how would you define the difference berween intellectually and mentally?). I believe that everyone ought to change (as a child grows old he would start inquiring about nature. So the questions like ''why is sky blue?'' and ''is there a ***?'' will come to everyone's mind naturally. Whether someone gets answers to these questions will depend upon the individual.) with the passage of time - this is what we would call the evolution (I think evolution can be of different types - biological evolution, evolution of someone's ideas or personality, etc. It can be individual or collective) of the human mind. Whether those changes have good or bad outcomes, our actions will decide. If we don't allow these changes to happen, then we are not doing justice to ourselves. Because humans have the natural potential to make themselves better as the river of time takes them greater distances.

It is unclear if your passage refers to a society or an individual.

When referring to an individual, I use "development" rather than "evolution". Some development happens naturally - for example, developing from being a child to being an adult. But as adults, people have to work at developing themselves, for example, doing physical exercise to develop strength, and solving puzzles, reading, and debating to develop the mind. Social scientists used to speak of "cultural evolution," as if there were primitive societies and advanced societies, and some natural processes of moving along some scale of "advancement."

Saying "allow these changes" seems to ignore the external and internal pressures that prevent people from working to develop themselves. There could be laws (e.g. laws against the education of women), society pressures, (e.g. prejudice against having an open mind to consider different ideas, pressure to accept rather than to challenge society's norms), and economic pressures (e.g. someone has to work to earn money and has no time for study, someone lacks money to afford an education), or the government's policy of investment in culture, arts, and education.

Yes, I do have changed in all these years.
