That’s a great observation, Annie! I couldn’t tell you exactly what a “normal” or ordinary life would look like (I doubt anyone could). However, I would say there are principles and behaviors that most of humanity has practiced since we’ve been here that only serve to drag us down and limit our experiences in life (laziness, selfishness, irresponsibility, etc.).

I liked your line about “the speed of our WiFi.” Poignant!
