Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Progress

Years ago, Walt Disney said, “Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we’re curious … and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” I heard the quote again a few weeks ago, and it really made me reflect on myself and think about the kinds of progress that I have made within my life. I recently spoke with one of my teachers, who grew up here in Suffield. They told me that nothing had changed since they had grown up here, which really got me thinking. Sure, returning to your hometown after fifteen, maybe twenty years and seeing that things have stayed the same would be extremely nostalgic for some people, but I disagree.
