Way back it was just God and Adam, who was lonely.
God was not, but had compassion.
Eve arrived to brighten the night.
All was good … for a while.
A snake whispered: 
the woman said why?
He couldn’t deny
and it all went awry.
Exile and exodus, murder and flood.
Never look back, just follow the man,
He’ll take you back to where it all began.
Or fail you, like He did in Japan.
The pot keeps boiling, sticky like tar.
We can’t recall what went in the jar.
We can’t look back, it stretches too far.

Swallowing our pride and coming out are the hardest thing to do if you’ve grown up in the Consumer Age, keeping up with the Joneses. Downsizing and offloading all that hard earned stuff is not easy.
Relying on the State is just foolish. Age pension will shrink as longevity increases.
Check out your parents – they will hide their plight from you; it is anathema for you to help them out!
If you are young, start now to work out how you are going to live after you retire (probably at age 72).
My view is that families should combine on rural land and produce as much food as possible.
