With all this discussion about getting new folks into the breed...........
I have to wonder if our ages do reflect a different kind of mind-set.
We "elder statesmen" came from a much different time.
It may sound "corny" but we did come from a time when people were
closer to the earth..........a concept difficult to explain.
The plain everyday things in life were in the forefront of living.......working,
education, rearing children, just plain surviving. Our world was small and
we participated in it.
These days, we live in a media cocoon.........bombarded daily with the
woes of the entire world spilling into our living rooms through our TV's.
We experience the world through an electronic screen.........we communicate
through an electronic screen....we buy our Christmas gifts through an electronic
screen......we sit warm and safe, in our easy chairs, and watch desperate lives
begin and end, through our electronic screens.
Why go to dog shows and join Breed clubs when you can watch the world
go by on your computer.
