A lot has happened in my lifetime. From the fallout of WW2 and music by Elvis to a close-up look at Pluto. And hopefully I have some time left.

They say change has become more rapid than ever, but consider my grandmother. She was born into a world where people went to the next town on a horse-drawn buggy and took a shit in an outhouse. At night, their lighting consisted of candles and kerosene lamps. By the time she died, we could fly across the ocean in an airliner and had even walked on the moon.

While they are hard to compare, I think the change she witnessed seems at least equal to the change I’ve witnessed.
