I've often found myself feeling the same way.

Thing is, we're in no danger of running out of things to invent or advance. There's effectively just as much uncharted territory for us as there was for anyone else. We even have the benefit of standing on their shoulders to achieve perspectives they couldn't realize.

On the other hand, there is a lot magic to eating pizzas and sipping diet cokes in the house by the lake only to play and make games.

I just no longer see myself being able to be blessed by that privilege.
