Notebooks of Scott

A couple days ago I was thinking about the rise of modern consumerism, and the demand for instant gratification. Practically anythig you find in a store can also be found in an instant form. Walk through any grocery stor and you will see hundreds of examples. Frozen pizzas, instant oatmeal, etc. Just pop ‘em in the microwave and there you go. Yet despite this insistence on the word “instant,” there are a great number of people in this country that have hobbies, most of which involve taking large amounts of time to create or do something, along with taking the time to learn the necessary skills.
So,even with the emphasis on “instant,” many of us are striving to find things that take lots of time to do.
