We went to Thailand for 3 weeks and it amazes me how individualistic and selfish we are in the West. Everything they do over there (well, obviously not 'everything') is based around community. How will this effect the people around me? What impact will it have on my family/community?

The questions we ask are more along the lines of - how inconvenient will it be for me, and do I feel like it?

You know - the age old - It's a free country! And even better...I can do whatever I want to do!


What are we doing to our world.
