I think about that often … we are lucky.

For those of us just a bit older, we know a world before an internet and worldwide communications. We also saw it come in and take over the world.

I don’t like the details and what happened, how it happened or what went wrong … I just feel fascinated that I happened to be born when I was because I got to this unbelievable change.

It’s like being the generation that saw the world switch from horses to cars … or candles to electricity.

It’s a monumental shift in human civilization and we got to see the start of it. And I don’t mean just my generation, everyone reading this now is still living inside the infancy of the modern internet and communications. It will change so much more in the future. It may be good, it may be bad, it may be neither, it may be both … but it will definitely change and we’ll look back on this moment in time and either be nostalgic and think of it fondly and quaint … or remember when things were a lot better.
