The world is too big for us. Too much is going on, too many crimes, too much violence and excitement. Try as you will, you get behind in the race, in spite of yourself. It’s an incessant strain to keep pace…and still, you lose ground. Science empties its discoveries on you so fast that you stagger beneath them in hopeless bewilderment. The political world is news seen so rapidly you’re out of breath trying to keep pace with who’s in and who’s out. Everything is high pressure. Human nature cannot endure much more!
true. right? The stunning truth is that this was written in the editorial ‘The Atlantic Journal’ in the June of 1833! A mere hundred and seventy two years ago! Google it yourself. Looks like whoever wrote that editorial a century and a half ago had unknowingly discovered the eternal truth about life. So, come on, lets not insert our heads in the sand and gripe. Hope, optimism and perseverence are the way to go. We can find million reasons to not to do something, but there is only one life to do anything.
