One thing I love about visiting the ‘old world’ places on earth is hearing from, and receiving care from generations past. You find it in cobblestone streets and castles, in old gardens and books, in antique tools, old cars and in buildings that were built slowly and meant to last for many future generations. There is a generosity in this kind of thinking that goes way beyond the consumerist urge. It is not instant, and it is not just for the now. It is more noble and it seeks to care for others – even others we may never meet.
What are ‘enduring qualities’ and what is ‘generational thinking’?
Can you think of any examples you’ve encountered?
