No, I was looking at it from a different pov so I wanted to see where you were going with it. We're actually not too off in terms of what we think. I just approach it from a different side.

For me, I think the aged are not respected and treated appropriately in some cultures because they do not have what the young want. Nowadays, everything has to be faster, longer, stronger, more (here is where I see your pov) and anything that is not those things is pushed to the side. Disposable societies. Disposable people.

Many cultures are strictly about progress and don't take into consideration that you cannot see how far you've gone if you can't see where you started.

Thanks for the clarification!
