2012



I read once - and I don't recall the source (perhaps literature from the 1950s) - that by the year 2000 we should have flying cars and personal flying devices, like jet-packs.

I see neither of these in everyday use, even in 2012...however, right now, I am sitting outside on a sunny day, blogging, reaching billions of people (potentially), showing off my craft, sharing my thoughts, and feeling fulfilled. I am able to work and watch my kids run and play in the sun. I can upload pictures of the quilts I make and share them, visually, with many. In turn, I can see others' crafts from blogs all around the world.

If this is considered the future, I'm pretty satisfied. I'll take a global exchange of ideas over jet-packs anyday.
