Out With the Old

Hey you know what....they have all the lastest greatest stores in Poland. I saw many high fashion clothing stores, not to mention watches, gadgets, and more. I've seen people dress very fashionably. The most impressive is their enthusiasm for change and advancement in today's world market.

I'm surprised how "matter of fact" the people are in their beliefs and everyone seems to have the "of course we are modern" attitude. The younger generation just accepts that everyone will embrace change and if not well then they are "old people with old thinking". It's very refreshing but almost to the point of embarrassment for me being an American visiting a nation that is moving forward at a quick pace.

Makes me wonder how America has advanced as much as we have when we have a nation hell bent on staying the same. Is progress that bad or scary that we can't embrace the unknown?
