AT LAST: SOME THINGS ARE BEING MADE EASIER BUT SOME FIGHT CHANGE

After too many recent years of things changing immediately you have made a purchase, other tasks are being made more difficult,  like getting to a real person after a telephone maze; take heart.  There are a few good changes,  For example, petitions when signed online can be directly posted to your Facebook page and the cause you believe in sent to all your friends on Facebook.  This worked for me suggested by a Service Company who found a contractor for me.  Since the contractor had done a great job,  I was happy to praise him to anyone who reads my Facebook

Thinking over the many changes that have occurred in the past couple of decades, I feel sad for those who cannot accept that the world will continue to change and the pace will even be accelerated.  Technology will continue to advance so that new products will be required by those who feel the need to stay current.While there are still people who don't own home computers, cell phones, CD and DVD players, digital cameras, they are fast becoming a developmentally arrested  minority.

The inability to change will leave some with no ability to do many things.  If it were not for phone cameras we would not have caught as many police brutality incidents and other illegal acts, nor captured pictures which would have remained images inr heads only.  At one point most of us were tied to wired telephone lines.  Now we can use the Internet or Satellite connections. The advances in making everything smaller and lighter allows us to carry more equipment on our bodies...such as phone, camera, games, GPS, photo albums, instant resources, and so much more.

The down side to it all is that every changer requires another learning curve.  You really have to pay attention because the dials and buttons are not where you were used to having them. It takes a while before new things get established in your cerebral cortex.  However, resisting learning and making the change only leads to deprivation, and being left behind the majority.  Naturally, keeping up to date by charging purchases of every new toy that comes along is not an answer either!  Everything in moderation and within your budget works the best.
