Another Cog

Some would consider it antiquated machinery. Yet another piece of the “if it isn’t modern, it’s flawed” logic. Thinking that everything has to be new and on the cutting edge to have worth -- one reason we have an abundance of empty retail space in abandoned strip malls while new free standing super structures go up one after another or why entire forests are being clear cut to make way for new developments and McMansions. “Bigger is better” -- another great mantra. There are perfectly good homes with character and charm available, but some can’t settle for less than a 40 room domicile for…2? Ask yourself, “What do I really need? What do I value?”
