it seems sad to me that people don't get to sit in the shade of the trees they plant! Time just goes by too quickly. And yet, isn't it a great reminder of how life in all forms has gone on and will go on? The world didn't begin when I was born; nor will it end when I die.

I was just watching on educational TV about a burial ground being discovered just outside of Lima, Peru. I have often thought about ancient peoples and thought, "How could they live like that?"; and I also wonder if people two and three thousand years from now will look at what they know about us and think the same thing.
