Unfortunately change happens to you whether you accept it or not. The Aborigines were quite happy unchanging for thousands of years, until someone else decided to change them, and they had no say in the matter as they had not changed enough to keep up with the modern world and it's ways. You can accept and try to control the change, or remain what will inevitably considered backwards and irrelevant, you are then at the mercy of being overtaken by someone else. If the world decides for now it likes backwards and nostalgia, fine, but if that changes and the world decides it wants to move forward and change that, you better be at the forefront leading it, or be consigned to history and squatting on someones front lawn in rags, bitter and telling everyone how it used to be.
