It isn't very often that I see something that makes me think that the modern world has become inhospitable to traditional ways of life. Today was one of those days. In the wake of one of my friends back home getting very happily married, two of my best friends from the bay area have ended their relationship. That is to say that one of them has ended their relationship. The depressing thing about this was that I thought that they were one of the most successful couples I have ever seen, to the point where I thought that they were going to become engaged in the very near future. Evidently I was mistaken. Now, more than ever, I am growing the realization that the modern world is not conducive to traditional relationships. Maybe the old ways were good for a reason.
