Did you know you can watch CBC documentaries online?
So awesome!
I just watched one about a hunter/gatherer people in Bornea, the Penan.
It's about how they've had to give up their way of life and settle down to become farming peoples.
Is this good or bad? I'm not sure.
It seems universal though, that change is a scary thing. I think it's one of those things that is resistant to cliched advice. Change is good? Change is bad? It really does depend on the nature of the change, doesn't it?
