I was quite happily being a bit creative writing and playing and then a small movement and I was in agony&#8217;s again. Very annoying and frustrating and painful.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Many people have not actually noticed the passing of time. They view the world as being as it was when they left uni or school. They really don&#8217;t&#8217; pick up much else in the way of knowledge if they are not academics or involved in civics\/politics in the course of their working lives. Perhaps they use fairly partisan news sources and don&#8217;t follow theatre and culture generally. So to them the world is perpetually the 60s 70s and 80s and the internet is not really used to gain knowledge much, it&#8217;s just for entertainment. had I remained a van driver for my working life, whilst I might still have been deeply involved in music I would have learnt very much of anything else I suspect. I certainly would not have had any strong political views, left or right on the center. My world ran on railway tracks pretty much. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><i>He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster.
