I find ...You know, this post is really uplifting. <br /><br />I find myself saying the same thing often, that "it wasn't like that when I was young." For example, when I was a kid we played outside ALL THE TIME. Even when I was in high school I spent a lot of time outdoors. Now I see all these middle school and high schoolers walking to the bus in the morning and it seems like someone dropped them off in my neighborhood so they could walk to the bus. I honestly NEVER see any of these kids except when they're walking to the bus. I mean, where do they all live? Why are they never out walking, playing, just being outside? As far as I can tell they're either watching TV, playing on a cell/tablet or playing video games whenever they're at home. They don't leave their houses.<br /><br />I feel like the vast majority of changes from when I was a kid to now, despite how very much more "convenient" they're helping our lives to seem are negative changes. This post however makes me think I should keep a look out for some good changes. There must be some great improvements that are just eluding me. Thank-you for that.rivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.com
