We are Reinventing Ourselves

Every time you do something new it could be said that you are reinventing yourselves. Every nation on earth right now is either doing this or moving towards entropy and non-existence. For example, we here in the U.S. are having a difficult time getting over our successes that we had from the 1950s (Starting with being the only large nation standing after World War II). So we are presently having more trouble reinventing ourselves because we succeeded on a different model than Globalization. So it confuses our traditions since world war II. But, we too, must jump on the reinventing bandwagon or be lost in the world rush to greatness based upon a whole new model of globalization. Americans in general don't like what globalization has done to our country. Circuit City is gone, Blockbuster may be gone soon, now Borders will be gone by October 1st. 100s of medium to large businesses in the U.S. are permanently gone with millions of U.S. citizens without jobs with no end in sight. Out last Space shuttle mission landed last week with 9,000 to 10,000 jobs permanently gone from the end of the shuttle and I saw that splashdowns will become the new norm starting in 2017. So in some ways we are going backwards.

But hopefully, that is only temporary. It is important to understand that in some ways 1950 to 2001 was a fluke. How many times does a world war happen that leaves your country as literally the last fully functioning large nation happening? Once in 1000 or 2000 years? It is time we got over ourselves and our traditions of the past 50 years and move forward developing on the new existing models of change here on earth. We need to reinvent ourselves again. We are the best at it on Earth over the last 200 years. Who are we? We are reinventing ourselves as I write this. Get ready world!
