Here I am in this small town called Mamallapuram, India. It reminds me of how simple my life was in the olden days.
Technology was understandable.

Just look at this Ferris wheel. It only has four chairs.

And Disney would probably have a fit if he saw Donald Duck in the middle of a makeshift car roller.
Families are also closer. Parents, daughters, grandchildren are all interdependent in the system that we knew then.

The youth would have clean fun, being tossed against the waves.

And love, and the future…

Would be discussed and determined in front of the far horizon.
I feel at home here, not lost in a concrete jungle, faced with complexities unfathomable to me.
Every day one goes deeper into the past.
