So as I sit here in the warm house with the wind and rain blowing outside I am reading the news headlines, stories about the HST, Provincial political party leadership candidates and gun violence in Vancouver. It makes me wonder how important will each of these "hot stories" be in 50 years.
Going back 50 years people still talk about WWII, Pearl Harbour, going back further they talk about various Presidential assassinations and civil uprisings. In fact with Christmas just around the corner we prepare to celebrate a birth which happened 2010 years ago.
Will we talk about today's stories in 50 years, I doubt it, so why get so worked up about them?
May be we should focus on the positive things we can do today to make a difference in the world tomorrow...
