So, how many of those day to day things have been lost by simply coming up with something dangerous and more complicated as an alternative? I think lots in all areas of living. Something to remember and think on when we see “progress.”

How lucky you were to have a knowledgeable person with you and one that could unwrap the cord so quickly.
Many things we have to be thankful for.
I have noticed that on 9-11 I changed, even more than before.
I have always studied the old ways, something inside me keep chasing them.
On 9-11, I sat here and listened to the radio and knew that what Bill and I knew would happen one day, had happened and did not know how to handle the thought of all those people.....I don’t have tv, so did not see photos until later.
After that, I noticed that I had thought about all the new electronics and decided that I was not interested in them.
My sister gave me a cell phone, or I would not have one and it does help me, now I can not feel I have to disconnect the computer from the land line.
I want to know the important stuff and not the ‘mod tv crap’.
I see the same changes in our food, it simply does not taste like it did once, at first the first answer that I got when I complained to Scott about the taste, was “It is all the meds you take”....as before his wife died, Theresa had a rough time with the taste of food, from the chemotherapy.
But it isn’t my taste, to prove it, he had brought me a flat of the individual wrapped honey- cinnamon rolls, the ones you will find near the cash register in the gas station.
I complained that it was full of chemicals and to prove it, I left one on the counter, just as it came out of the box, it got moved but never to the refrig or freezer.
I handed it to him last week, suggested he squeeze it, “Nothing wrong with this, where did you get it?”
I think he thought a Freeper had sent it to me.
He looked at the expiration date and I told him that it is about 2 years old, give or take a month or so.
He agreed that if I had not told him, he would have eaten it.
No, our new ways are not the best ways, not for our bodies, minds or mother nature.
