The Silver Age

When someone talks about the Golden Age of India or the Golden Age of Islam, we have grand visions of glorious eras where culture blossomed and great new discoveries sprouted out across all facets of society. Certainly, the people who were fortunate enough to live in Golden Ages must be some happy people. Meanwhile, the Silver Age can be described as an inferior model of the Golden Age. As a rule, the Silver Age cannot exist on its own. It has to follow a certain Golden Age. It's simple. If there's no Golden Age, there's no Silver Age. Worse, there's no guarantee. For instance, there is no Silver Age of India or Silver Age of Islam. Why?

If you ask the Greeks, they will say that the Golden Age was a time when Cronos was the Lord of the heavens. It was a groovy grand time. There was an abundance of food in the form of fruits and all manners of vegetation so humans had enough to eat without the single breaking of a single drop of sweat. There were no laws, no killings, and best of all, no aging. Though it doesn't make complete sense since children would eventually grow to the become adults, it was supposedly a time when wrinkles and old age ailments were nonexistent so when a person passed away, he or she would look like a young adult, minus the acne, obviously. Yeah, the rivers overflowed with milk and nectar and the world was one big Eden with no Forbidden Fruit. Placed in Eternal Spring, nobody wore any clothes and everybody lived in perfect harmony.

Then, the Silver Age occurred when Cronos was ousted. Now, Zeus was not so generous. For some reason, he was not happy that the humans were having so much fun. The Olympians created a race of inferior humans and Zeus replaced the Eternal Spring with four seasons. Now, humans couldn't walk the earth in all their glories and they had to cultivate the land for food. Childhood would be a hundred years but adulthood, relatively shorter. As a result, there were a lot of childish disputes. When they refused to serve the gods, Zeus destroyed the humans, thus ending the Silver Age.

Though we are living in an age which is neither Golden nor Silver, we shouldn't complain so much since we don't have much choice in this realm. However, we can choose the top silver buyer when we want to sell silver. Get instant cash for silver today!
