The world is changing.
It always is. It always will.
(even though there is the existence of) the hopes and wishes of some, and all the organisational pull and muscle and power established institutions use to try and stop it.
Change will come.
(even though there is the existence of) the Catholic Church holding (in hand) to magical and mysterious lies during the Middle Ages, change came. (even though there is the existence of) it denying the progress of science during the Renaissance and the social progress of the modern world, change came.
(even though there is the existence of) today's Conservatives of all persuasions fighting for the control of (coal, natural gas, oil, etc.) over cleaner, (producing more with less waste), more plentiful and way-cheaper energy came/coming from sun, wind and tides, change is coming.
And (even though there is the existence of) today's many many businesses which are hopelessly and completely committed to their existing ways. They, who are too busy running on their different treadmills to take a look at the revolution happening as we speak, for them too, change will wash away the old ways.
The word 'revolution' may have been overused (not very long ago). Marketing geniuses have been spruiking revolutions in everything from mattress technology to skin-care products: as a term it's (in a true way) a little shop-worn.
Still. It's well applied in this instance.
Because nothing really describes the processes of (showing the ability to create interesting new things) disruption across many businesses like 'tech revolution'. It's a thing. And it's coming to a thing near you.
What I really like about this coming worldwide tech revolution is that (for the moment at least) it seems that its really only the stubbornly rich and powerful, those too stuck to look at the approaching waves of change, who will be left holding (in hand) to the old ways while the rest of the world moves on.
And do you know what?
I think I can live with that.
