Has Not Always Been The Same

We get so captivated by the way our world is organized that we forget that life was once conducted differently than the way we live now.
Once we were hunter-gatherers.
Once custom, tradition and religious belief held primary sway in our process of decision.
Once we were bound together by feudal ties and obligations.
Once most of us never left the place of our birth.
Once almost all of us were engaged in agriculture.
Once we rode horses.
Once the U.S. population was smaller and the demand for labor greater.
Things don’t stay the same. They change. So what is important?
What should we keep as we rush toward the future?
