EXCHANGE!
Questions and Answers are cited below as
“Q” and “A”
1.
Q: Exchange of what?
A: Exchange of
goods, services and views.
2.
Q: Why exchange?
A: Because
looking, for example, at my current issues of Los Angeles Business Journal and
Orange County Business Journal and news media generally, I can see that
it is basic exchange which marks our civilization and underlying majesty.
3.
Q: Exchange from what vistas?
A: Basically
from the Big Bang from which this planet emerged from 12 to 13 billion years ago, and it is
apparent at once that there is a
tremendous change from the molecule in the primal ooze to the world we are in.
4.
Q: And why is that exchange important?
A: Because it
encompasses eventually all men and women, –and looks, –both forward, as I do, –moving shortly into 92 years of
age, plus looking backward to remind ourselves of how tremendous is the
gradual exchange in the evolution of man, and how much courage that should give
us for the human future.
A good place from which to
evaluate that human future is the Chinese Lin Yu Tang’s volume on “The
Importance of Living,” published by the
John Day Company of New York in 1937,
the year.
The book is a “must” read for today’s human future.
