I feel a similar guilt about our present lives of ease. I spend all day sitting in front of a computer doing work or surfing the web, then spend an hour watching television after dinner, and spend the rest of the evening playing the computer game du jour. Okay squeeze in some homework with the kids in there, but that’s it.
My grandfather built Manhattan as a union carpenter for 50 years and before that was employed by the CCC, building logging camps and dams out west.
In comparison, I feel like a lazy turd.
