Geography is four dimensional

Geography is four-dimensional | Derek Sivers by

Forty years ago, a family moved from India to Canada, and raised their children with “Indian values”. When those children visited India last year, the locals laughed at their outdated beliefs. What their family had said were facts were just a perspective from 1980.

I have had this feeling many times in the past. Our memories of places seem stuck in time. Some things change, some don’t.

Like super-fast delivery services exploded while I was in Finland. It was a surprise to know, when I first did it, that I could place an order and it will be at home in ~ 10 mins.

Time is the fourth dimension.
