A Golden Age is usually perceived in retrospect. The nostalgia is usually mixed with longing, regret, remorse, and just enough irony to choke your laughter with tears. The caveat is that when one constantly looks back in memory, one does not see the challenges ahead. Instead of "What If I...", the imagination is preoccupied with "If Only I Had Done..." We are in a Renaissance, as we study the past, ponder the present, and dream about the future. If we dream about the future, if we strive to achieve those dreams, if we pioneer new frontiers, then the next golden age will not be found in the orange dusk of twilight, but in the golden dawn of tomorrow's sunrise.

The caveat is that one does not look forward while lost in the past, and our dreams are "If Only I Had..." and not "What If I..." So, this is a Renaissance, as we learn from the past, think about today, and dream about the future. If we believe, if we strive, if we pioneer new frontiers, then the next Golden Age will be found in the morning sunrise, and not the evening dusk.
