"I got somethin' to say, an' then I ain't gonna say no more........
- Mayella in To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee"
Don't think you'll get that lucky. I have lots to say about what I don't like, and what I think is wrong with the world.
The world really isn't changing that much, it is me. Once, I once had a more positive outlook, but time has wasted my mind, and made me more critical.
When I was in my twenties, with two small kids, I couldn't believe how much my parents and in-laws complained about my generation, the way the government is run, how the ways of the world are not to their liking anymore. I didn't share their views, and couldn't understand why they were so negative about everything, and constantly complained.
I swore that I'd never be like that.
It happened anyway. Getting older sucks!

Old is a mindset. Evil Spock plans on replacing parts on Evil Spock as they fall apart to stay perpetually young forever.
ReplyDeleteI was complaining this weekend about 'kid today'! Yuck. I'm getting old, too.
ReplyDeleteI find myself saying those things like, "In MY day, we didn't...." and "When I was young, we never..." etc. Even the old, "When I was your age, I walked to school, up hill both ways...in the snow and ice."
ReplyDeleteI guess it's inevitable!
