• Now: Inspirational Thought

    Have you ever thought about how much greater and more comfortable your life is than other people’s? Think about it. People in the middle ages could not see a doctor, ate food you and I would not touch, and worked way harder than we will ever have to. The same is true about people throughout the bulk of history, from the early 1900’s all the way back to the hunter-gather tribes that civilization developed out of, and even the pre-human apes before them! We’ve got it good. Thanks to all the medical professionals who have saved us from disease, the agricultural scientists who’ve given us bountiful food (including the great Norman Borlaug, who saved a BILLION lives through his work on agricultural efficiency), and so many others. We belong to a great species!
