Often my friends and I marvel at the younger generation who are so computer savvy. Little kids not yet in their teens seem so adept in handling the computer - never mind that some are just playing some mindless games or perhaps surfing through some porn sites. That they are so in as far as modern technology is concerned, made me ponder over King Pasenadi's fourth dream. In this dream, men were unyoking a team of sturdy and strong oxen and replacing them with young steers to draw the load. The young steers being unqualified for the job, merely stood still and refused to draw the wagons. It is said that in a similar way, unrighteous kings do not honour wise, skillful but aged lords and had instead honoured young, foolish and ignorant people to preside court. Would you for a minute think that this is happening in our present modern world?
