It had always been the thought - that to ensure a successful future - that first , we must stop and look back -- and this before one can move ahead in life. The necessity of this process was for analyzing how to proceed forward most effectively.

• History - Is, something that was, and that now - is not!

Therefore - we label it as "history". History - his-story... Or hers? Depends upon your generation in history!

In reality - be it his-story or her-story... "history" itself - is objective to those who not only tell it, but write about it.

And lets face it... are currently living it!

Now if this is the reality of what history is - - how can we ever be certain, that what we read in our history books, or read in the newspaper and online - is really accurate history?

Bottom line - history is subjective and not objective - regardless of what you may believe about the history of anything, i.e. - an event, things, time-period, a person, of a place, or even an advancement in the sciences and technologies, etc...

Crazy, isn't it.... But this is the truth behind what we look to and refer to as "our" history.

What does understanding "our" personal "history" regarding technology - then have to do with - the inevitable daily-future advancements - that are a part of the world we live in today?

With the varied fields in technology, as we strive to look forward into the future - our minds are still attempting to literally un-boggle themselves simultaneously - while somehow keeping up with the future advancements in technologies that are being introduced into our lives endlessly... right now.

Because in today's world - the future is happening literally in real-time... and in reality - quicker than yours or my time - and "we" will never be prepared for what is NOW!

In these very same moments of time - - to go forward into the future advancements with the many technologies exploding universally -- we find ourselves struggling to understand the history and experience of our - personal past relationships, with that very technology.

In days gone by, to be nostalgic and "look" back - - was to sit back and fondly caress our memories and remember that which was pleasing to the soul and gave us joy during our lives.

A person, had the luxury of looking back and seeing things with what we call "twenty-twenty" vision or a clear perspective.

The old cliche' "hindsight" is 20-20... was so very true.

After all - it made us wise - and we then became teachers to the young and rising generation.

How many young people today, are looking to the older generation for their future advancement and understanding of technology? In reality what that means - is that their future is moving much quicker than our past ever did!

In fact, I do believe that many of the "older" generation have pretty much figured that they best throw in the towel on ever trying to understand this fast paced life of real-time advancements in technology, which has fast become - just "everyday" life for those in their youth today.

Uncle!

Knowing that the future of technology is now... and that whatever the mind can conceive is possible - propels each one of us into that future right now - even as we speak.

So - how are you doing living like one of The Jetsons?

As a young person, who grew up in the 60s and 70s - I loved to watch the Jetsons cartoon, each Saturday morning. I looked forward as a child, and trusted the day - that my life, would be just like that.

I believed it was possible. Every child does... and although we are not the future of the past any longer - we are the future in real-time.

This you must remember -- it was our generation who dreamed this dream and now our wishes are coming true - faster than we can say... "Beam me up Scottie"!

And isn't this the future we wanted to bring about for our children. I have always said "every generation better". And although my head is found spinning a lot of the time as I do my best to enjoy what is happening in all areas of technology today - I am actually delighted to see my children and my children's children - having no trouble whatsoever enjoying the life they were meant for.

Go figure.... I suppose, that they were truly born - for such a time as this!
