Where has all of the patience gone?

Ok, so I have been an epic failure at keeping up with this blog, so here is another go :)

Lately I have been having epiphanies about life in general. Most current in my mind has to be the issue of patience. I feel that as a society full of technology, where everything is literally at our fingertips, we have no idea what it means to slow down. If we are not living, by living I mean doing something...anything, at every moment of every day and doing it quickly then why live at all?

For example, I deal with the public all day and everyday so I feel that I have a pretty good hold on how people act. I must preface this by saying, this theory I have come up with is obviously not a scientific study, simply observation. Anywho...the American public truly has a zero patience tolerance. When did this evolve? I mean I live in Kentucky and people in the South are supposed to have a slower way of life, so it makes me wonder what the heck is life like in New York....is it like the Jetson's? Did the "Back to Future" ideals become realized where people float on hoverboards? At this moment I cannot imagine moving at any faster of a speed before we literally turn into rays of light. I seriously think that if someone has to wait for more than two minutes for anything....and I mean anything, including for someone to use the restroom, that we will all have a nervous breakdown and crack into one million pieces, can you imagine? Yikes!?!

I am not saying that technology is a bad thing...but are we taking it a bit too far to the point where we are changing our human traits? Food for thought I guess.
