Your frame of reference gets larger, so you better understand the lengths of time. My Great Great Grandfather lived in the 1800's, so that's just 3.5 lifetimes ago. But, even though things may look similar, and they faced many of the same challenges, their day-to-day lives were completely different than ours.
