I appreciate the author's transparency. The past 200 years of innovation have created a world that is hard to connect with sometimes. You used to wake up every day looking for food ... hand to mouth ... build a fire or freeze to death. The most joyous times were found simply being with friends and family with no presumptions of better-ness because you knew how much their horse cost. There were times to be alone too. Today its hyper-information, hyper-jobs, hyper-success, hyper-sugary foods. And what is success? What is living? Why is there one ice-cream stop in every town instead of every town having its own ice-cream shop? This new generation wants to understand themselves and how they fit within the spaces they frequent. They don't want to live inside a commercial anymore.
