A way of life is coming to an end
The progressive and liberal ideas to make things better have failed after
a century
I always wondered what it was like
during the first American Revolution as to what the people who cared even read
or heard about.
Now I have a sense. I call it these
days.
I also believe in the progressive
and liberal ideas as wonderful ideas.....until it comes time to pay for them.
Then they fail like so many other
human ideas on the way to the dustbin of history. It only took us a century to figure
it out. In the meantime, I also believe many of the past abuses have also
improved quite a bit where I live, like in the USA.
But we still think we should move
forward, like to improve our quality of life as best we can for our children.
Like the common saying suggests, it is truly about our children and our future
expressed through them.
There are alternatives to the
failures of a century of progressive and liberal ideas.
I sure hope we pursue them. And it
will take time. Patience can be a virtue
in so many times, including the present times.
It is kind of like evolution. There is catastrophic evolution, and then
there is gradual evolution. You figure out which way you want to go to our
future.
Last, some may now suggest that change is always
disruptive to society. Even I would agree with this simple principle. But life is
often a little more complicated than just simple.
