Now they can travel by aeroplane, hear in a second what is going on in all parts of world, talk to friends anywhere in the world almost as if they in the next room, soon be see the one they were talking to hundreds of miles away. All these changes they have witnessed, (hut through it ail learned that true happiness, lasting jov comes from the spirit within man; that life consists not of material things hut of the quality and content of the spirit.
