Our lifetime may be the last that will be lived out in a technological society.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
The whole system of society tells you what to do.
I like today and perhaps a little future still but the past is really something I'm not interested in. So as far as I'm concerned I like only the past of things and people I don't know. When I know I don't care because I knew how it was.
