That's for sure. My mind has been wandering to the old country on these long winter days and how different society is there. There's a Swedish saying,"There are people on the other side of the mountain.".
What's that mean? To me it means that the world doesn't revolve around you and that other people have the same desires and deserve the same quality of life you have. Maybe it's just because they're a more homogenous society. Whether or not you would want to live the way they do,they don't seem to have the degree of political and racial divide that we have,so they have more respect for each other.
Kinda goes along with the original post. Used to be that communities were formed around immigrants from one certain area. The German communities,the Scandanavian communities etc. Everybody had the same heritage,the local economy revolved around one certain industry......people just cared more because they were equal. Now,with a more mobile society,we have a more diverse society and the friction causes some major fires to break out more and more often. Just the different opinions of what causes these events throws gasoline on the flames.
Makes me want to go back to Sweden or burry myself totally in the Mennonite community and completely ignore the rest of the world.

He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
