The world's a changing.. shape up or ship out?

Like  it or not, some seems to be for the better and much for the worse.. but we have to move with the times... Sometimes it's hard to change and some of us are stick in the muds but that won't stop change.  How do you feel about it?

    Yes :) Well spotted.... much of what we complain about has been going on throughout history.. I am mindful and I think i even used it in a reply to you long ago.. of the socrates quote about how rude children are.. lol they always have been and things have always been changing... we evolve... Sometimes the pace of change can seem faster tho...

  • "Time and tide wait for no man." Its as true today as when Chaucer wrote it in the 14th century. 

    The only true permanence IS change. This is the gist of evolution: the future builds on the past, evolve or be left behind.

    IMO, each of us is "of our own time", which is to say our relevance has a shelf-life, one we have a hand in, but cannot extend indefinitely.
