Good observation! Nice way of wording. So glad that the newer generation want to find different ways to do old things. Nothing is worse than a rubber stamp in life.

thanks mom:)
That’s the truth…the “way it’s always been,” is stagnation and death.
well put!

thank you:)
You’re welcome! 🙂
Or “we have done it like this for centuries”. Great words and poem Christopher.
Thank you:)
Yep – to stay the same is definitely a fate worse than death… We need to grow and develop… A great philosophy well illustrated in your poem.. x
Thank you Wendy:) well said!
You’re welcome! xx
Spot on!! No society can progress if its leaders say “well, this is how we’ve always done things.” 😀
Bravo!
