The concept of progress that we have in our modern day.... sigh.... only a few hundred years ago the world was much the same from one year to the next, now technology has thrust us on a non-stop bullet train to nowhere in particular. Our minds have become warped by this perception, and we no longer see the cycles that used to define our very existence.
Our rhythms have been broken, replaced with a contempt for all that is perceived as "old". The future is our goal, while the past represents all that is outdated or otherwise effectively dead to us. Mere existence is taken for granted; it is progress which matters.
We live in a society which has invented history so that we may dismiss it in our own delusional pursuit of grandeur.
