Your horse running away or the wolf jumping into your sheep pen among others.

Humans have never had a dearth of interruptions.

What's sad is, today, most of those interruptions are completely ignorable (no one has a sheep pen thats not well protected and monitored) - yet, we treat that work email at 10pm with the same urgency as one.

Atleast back then, it was your sheep pen.

Your sheep pen on their land across most of the world. And sometimes not even that.

I'll be facetious and say it's now: Their sheep pen on their land across most of the world.

On a more serious note, their land really applies to the rich could tax you. They didn't care about taking care of the land - the only reason why they owned it is to tax it.

Nothing's changed for the better on that front.
