My husband commented last night that this is our generation’s version of slavery. It was a shocking way of putting it, but I’m not sure he’s so far off the mark. :(

  Hi, Ellis! I like that your hubs is thinking about it. He’s a keeper. :) I wouldn’t say the two are comparable, but it’s certainly something in our generation that also can’t be left up to the popular vote.

A lot of people can’t do ‘simple’. They’re uncomfortable unless things are chaotic. Sad but true.

  So true, Lena! I’ve known way too many people like that.
