Letters From The Time Traveler: The 2025 Report- The Have Not’s
Dearest Edith,
Time, my dear, is a very precious thing. We are taught not the waste it, not to squander it.
I feel those in 2025, squandered those last few years of “normal” life. They were so busy trying to be “normal” they lost the plot.
This was the general mood in 2022:
For those who were noticing life was changing, it did indeed become a slow-moving apocalypse. This led to many family and friendships ending between the realists and the rose-colored glass wearers.
The rose-colored glass wearers tended to be well off. I recently reported on the 2025 Have’s. My reporting on them was easy compared to the Have Not’s.
While the Have’s clung to money and power like a barnacle on a ship, the Have Not’s sunk beneath the waves.
From 2020–2025, it was a time, I’ll call it “Time of the Great Change”. Normal life was slipping through the fingers of those who had in a lot of ways, taken it for granted.
