My journal of life after the first Earth decline. A new order of normal arose.
This is a new world. Not the world where I was raised. My mother and father didn't survive the plague that took everyone regardless of social status, physical beauty or strength, or political association. I'm glad they are not here to see the changes. Married people are no longer married. They are bonded only until the woman reaches the end of her fertility cycle. Then she is forced to join one of the many training houses. The man is allowed to choose another mate. Mate is an apt description; like animals form bonds only to reproduce, so have we. The few people who were able to lead us and figure out a way to survive devised the plan to repopulate the earth. We need people to work the farm land and take care of the livestock.

We went from the digital age of mechanized food production to the stone age. I'm sorry, that's very dramatic. It's not actually the stone age because we do have basic tools. We don't have gasoline or electricity. Those "luxuries" required people who knew how to run the plants to produce the gasoline and the electricity. The plague hit everyone. Before CNN went off the air, we heard the plague was spread through the air. Airports became ground zero in many countries. Everyone thought they had a cold, runny noses, coughing which spread the plague even more. Then within two days of the symptoms, they were dead. The deadly virus worked its way into the blood stream and attacked the muscles of the heart and turned the heart to stone.

In a nutshell:
1. Plague--everything stops working
2. New world order; scientist and some military men in control
3. The population needs to be boosted.
4. Small agricultural towns pop up in the south.
5. Women are sent to Training Houses once they are no longer fertile.
6. Keeping track of families is no longer important since survival requires population to grow.
7. Training Houses are for the education of the children.
8. Men are sent to training houses once it is determined their sperm is no longer viable or are crooked.
9. Libraries are turned into temples. All the knowledge is there.
10. Families no longer exist. Children are kept together and go to training houses like school. When they are physically strong enough, they are trained to help on the farms or with the livestock.
11. Religion is almost non existent. They only pray to the universe for help and guidance.
12. All children trained in self defence and physical fitness.
13.
