Survival was a full time job for these folks. To stay away from dying young was a full time job. Life expectancy was - oh - about 40 or 45. They had no time.
Gather wood, cook, clean, plough the field with oxen, plant for food for next season on and on..........
When stricken with disease, just a simple one like diarrhoea, they die. Yup, terrible.

They talked to each other. People of The Old Age used to have better face to face communications. Neighbours used to meet each other more when there was no electricity.

I think that people in that era spent most of their time just doing for themselves and honing their survival skills as they didn't have the conveniences we have today...Before we start feeling badly for them however I think in ways they were much better in tune with their environment than we are . They actually knew and helped their neighbors and conversed with each other instead of burying their heads in a TV or video games

Shut off your computer. Go to your fuse box and pull the main switch. Sleep in the yard for a week. And think about it.

What free time? Back then many people had all their time caught up in trying not to die.

|^ agree with y2ceasar.
A twenty five year old was getting "long in the tooth".
Their time wasn't free. It was measured.

Paint, read, draw, talk, discuss, they still had oil lamps so they would have used those to see around i suppose.
