forklifts of our lives

Today my nephew graduated which got me thinking about growing older and how complex the world is now.  I was born in 1970 when the first lego set I saw was a simple forklift

Pretty simple, just 1 job play all day lifting a simple brick...not much change thru elementary school except slightly more complexity of the.model

Then as life got more complex in the 90s to 2010s, the forklift got more refined...an actual seat and curved pieces...the rough corners were more refined and the model itself was more complex with forks to handle bigger loads that life throws at it...

But NOW DAYS...

15 pieces from the model in 1970 became much more complex to 2020...the purpose of the forklift and metaphorically my life is the same..to lift the loads live gives...but the inner working and knowledge of putting everything together is so complex...so heres to a graduation day when one looks back at where we start and how complex we've become now...not just at a graduation point...but in life
