We Are All Connected

No life-form ever can be a mere passive medium transferring the past strengths to the future. To the primitive man a flint stone tool must have seemed the ultimate in technology. He would have found several uses for it, but for all that the bronze age showed how inadequate it was. Do we now consider a bronze artifact any more useful than as a museum piece?
Every age brings its own problems, which is unique that technology needs to be more advanced to meet the demands. In inventing new ways and means we are changed by them and in turn change the future in some manner. In terms of experience we have added something to the collective experience, quality of which is as mysterious as life itself.
Each of us adds something to the collective experience: Civilization is like a megaplant with production lines of various components going on non-stop where birth of a child is like a worker punching the timecard on arrival and death as punching out for the day. Merely because we have left the workstation would it mean that the production is held up?
