There's a lovely essay about the future by Michael...
2008-05-23 07:34:00 There's a lovely essay about the future by Michael Chabon posted in PDF (I think it was originally in Details magazine) at The Long Now site. One sentence hit me: "If you ask my eight-year old about the Future, he pretty much thinks the world is going to end, and that's it."A friend on the Internet talks about "digging with teaspoons" and connects that with people's long struggle. I always enjoy hearing him tell anyone who asks to get out their teaspoon and dig, because I think it just might make a difference.The kids maybe right about the world ending. What I grieve about is how that may make it harder for them to feel they can make a difference. Yet perhaps it's not the impediment I imagine. All of us can create something good and the reward in doing so maybe intrinsic. Still, it sure helps when others notice. And that's one reason I love the posts your write when you point to the creations of others.
