(Category: life)
It is hard to contemplate changes that happen slowly, even for the best of us. After all I find it hard to comprehend that my PhD is coming up for 10 years out of date, and my time at Plymouth Poly (1986-1989) doesn't feel as if it was nearly half of my life ago.
Which makes events that can affect us all seem a little hard to take in, especially for a generation which has seen constant change as the norm.
Maybe that is why I found this comment more than a little disturbing:
