You can't go home again.
I resonate with the first paragraph. Those people raised with beliefs of a time that does not exist anymore happen to be very conservative and refuse to see the change.
“The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”
Every geography has a timestamp.
I get the latitude, longitude, and they added time. But what was the fourth dimension? Or third rather, because the post assumption is that time was the fourth added.
Same is true for humans too. About their personality. Constantly changing and you will never meet the same person twice in that sense.
