A rather scary thought.

When I was a child, one hundred year ago was an eternity. Another age beyond imagination.  Anything that far back was ancient history. Life was primitive and none of the gadgets and things I took for granted were yet dreamed of. But recently, I had a very disturbing thought. One hundred years ago, my parents were children! Suddenly one hundred years does not seem quite so long ago. Funny how your perspective changes as you age.
