Dear Marcia,
I would say that life is an infinite continuum in which every generation
make their imprint contribution to the next ones. If you mean progression in
a positive way I agree with you of course. But if the meaning is simply the
dynamics of space and time I would say that all things have their
progression. For example Ilya Prigogine found entropy as the natural
progression of things...but still there is negrentropy in the game of
evolution...
And why teenagers keep making the same mistakes as their parents...? I think
that it is not quite the same mistakes...although it looks the same...
