Yesterday Candide said something he's said before, which was, "Maybe we're just too old" to get excited over 99.999% of the builds out there. I agree that while new people are going gah gah over something, often it's something I've seen before. Sometimes the "I've never seen anything like it before!" builds are just versions of old builds.

There's a lot that is fun, and I love exploring, but the extreme sense of wonder and amazement one has as a new person doesn't last forever. Enjoy it while you can! For all that, Second Life becomes more home to me every day. More useful as a tool. More an extension of my brain.
