The modern age, especially in recent years (Covid, domestic political unrest, Ukraine etc.) often makes people yearn for what’s been called the “Good Old Days”. It’s tempting to think that if we could step into a time machine and go back to a “simpler” era that all would be well.
Be careful what you wish for. I was handed a book many years ago that cured me of wishing for times gone by: “The Good Old Days – They were Terrible!” The author makes the point that the good old days were good only for a favored few….and it’s always been that way.
Dr. Scott Galloway’s “No Mercy, No Malice Blog” makes the same point on a more macro level and after reading his recent post, “A Touch Better” I think you’ll be grateful for living not only where you do, but WHEN you do.
