Just saying.............

Change can be the extremes of 'bad' or 'good'. In the context of your posts, I would say that things are hard for an anachronism like myself. I want my Norman Rockwell world. I want, "Yes ma'am." and "No sir", and 'holding the door', and hard work. I want people to watch their language around women and children. I want people to thank soldiers and first responders for their service. I do it. I want 'True grit' , hard work, honor, courage, and 'intestinal fortitude' to be the male conditioning default setting. I want poise and grace, domestic duties, hard work and wisdom , and maternal qualities to be the default setting for female conditioning. I'm kicking and screaming against the destruction of the skeletal remnants of my Norman Rockwell ideal.

there is good in the world.. accept that. to enforce conditioning to your enjoyment is not a valid ideal for this success though.

good comes in a wide form of variables. i'm looking for the total good, i am looking for the good of the body in whole.

as in a unity to work together for the better of humankind.

and i don't need anyone to call me sir or say thank you when i hold the door open.

i just want to hear "we're cooperating with others to fight disease"

and "a universal diplomacy made this happen, we are one as a planet"

@sighmeupforthat Yes. I think the medical advancement is wonderful, but I haven't seen much universal diplomacy lately.
