8 May 1950
It was a crazy time being on the island with just schoolboys. We were on the plane to escape the war, but we had our own war. Many people think that children are innocent, that we are not capable of murder and brutal violence. But we are capable of such things. We can be savage. I desperately wanted to be civilised, building huts and trying to get rescued from the island. But in the end, I was one of them. I killed a boar yet I felt thrilled and was partly responsible for Simon’s death. I am ashamed of how evil I have become and can be.
I miss the civilised and responsible child I once was. But even though I have lost my childhood innocence and have seen more brutality than I could have ever imagined, I have never really lost who I am. I am still the Ralph that holds onto civilisation, and in some ways, I am still a chief. Leadership post-island life will be different as this time, I have a keen understanding of our human nature. And I want to be a better person to honour the death of my dear friends.

Hi,
He means that satellite navigation systems will surely get your location but you will never know where you are.
The explanation here is that people lose the sense of connecting with nature when technology takes over. People nowadays do not see the need of wanting to know because they will just look it up in Google! Thus with the current rate of technological advancement, people are losing the mastery and knowledge about the surroundings which develops with time and deep engagements with things.
This argument is persuasive because the meaning of life originates from mastery of knowing things that surrounds us from experience and interaction but if technology does it for us, then what do have to be proud of?
Hope this Helps!
