Rethink Tradition
Rethink Tradition
Maybe some of those of us who are presently unemployed or even underemployed will have some leisure to appreciate the simpler joys of homemaking--that is, if they still have an apartment or home to shelter them from the winter cold and enough money to keep something cooking in the pot.
And by the way, I don't know of anyone with a traditional home these days who is not in serious financial trouble!
It is probably time to rethink a LOT of typical and traditional American "givens"--since our overwhelming population growth and the foolish greed of many of us has eliminated forever the traditional American Dream of the mid-twentieth century--that is, the "cottage with white picket fence and rambling rose", the "freedom of the open road", even the "good, steady job with a future".
It may be time to slow down--think--and go on in a different and better way--since they way we were will never again be the way we are.
