You've raised a very interesting question. One
I'm sure most of us haven't given much thought. At least I haven't.
It reminds me of the old adage, " you don't miss your water until the well runs dry. " Perhaps we should be thankful every day Medium hasn't crashed and burned. 😉
I'll leave you with lyrics to one of my favorite tunes to contemplate.
Everything must change
Nothing stays the same
Everyone will change
No one stays the same
The young become the old
And mysteries do unfold
'Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged
There are not many things in life
You can be sure of, except
Rain comes from the clouds
Sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds do fly....
