Is it progress when we are able to click-click and click to share a moment captured in time visually or are we short changing ourselves? Before cameras and digital media we were blessed with our elders and past generations to tell us stories to invoke mental images in our minds of their experiences and maybe, if we were paying attention, impart some wisdom upon us in the process. And, in return, we gave a sense of accomplishment and respect to the teller of the tale. Future generations may look back at our digital recordings and images, but who will tell the tales, relating the feelings, smells and senses of the moments recorded in time?
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the pooch silently listened to family history by the fireplace!
