Cody Schaller reflection

Uncle Bob Ledbetter 

     Uncle Bob only voted twice in his life. The first time he voted was for whiskey. The second time he voted, he voted for the president.
     When he was a child, he worked as a slave. Everyday when he was on the plantation, he would sing songs to pass the time. He would sing to his "lady" across the river. If his "lady" heard him she would sing back.
     At the age of nineteen he joined the church of his own free will. His wife did not force him which was specified in the recording. His father before him was a "regular old church man" as he put it.
       Looking at old technology, I wonder how new and present technology will affect our children or our children's children? I personally believe, that in the future our children or grandchildren, will have an easier acces to see into our lives than we have to see into our grandparents or parents past lives today. They will be able to look up our names and find our old accounts or old photos and videos of us
     They will know more about us and understand our lives and problems with a clarity we do not have today. Doing research for school projects will be easier with the technology we have today. I think we will have a closer bond with our children and grandchildren.
