Sunday Scribblings #198

Ahhhh, WHAT a prompt to write about!!!  The good, ol’ days, without internet….without television…without telephones, fax machines, and e-mail.  The good, ol’ days of being snowed in, and not worrying about being snowed in for a week, ’cause you knew all your neighbors were snowed in too.  The good, ol’ days of kids being outside playing whenever it was daylight and they weren’t in school, instead of sitting in front of the television or game system or computer for the national average of SEVERAL hours a day.  The good, ol’ days when families actually ate dinner together and played together and prayed together.  The good, ol’ days when husbands and wives actually spoke to each other instead of being on separate computers doing separate things.  The good, ol’ days when wives and/or mom’s actually COOKED dinner and their “goodies” from scratch.  The good, ol’ days when “thank you” wasn’t a foreign word in our vocabulary.

What a wonderful prompt!!
God Bless!!!

    I’m happy to see that we are all connecting with “The Good Old Days” even if it is through a computer blog. :).

    All this is so true, but don’t let us get too morbid about the lost past and its values. We must surely be glad of our own time, things could be a lot worse and may well be later!
