Nostalgia's great, but ... that was then - this is now ... and no, I don't really like that fact, but I can't fight it, either ...

The good old days weren't always so good
Tomorrow's not as bad as it seems.

Now, right now!!!!

Everything prior was required for this very moment.

I wouldnt have wanted to live prior to the seventies because of jim crow and segregation, but if I could have stayed in the seventies,, when people were just starting to experience some equality and still felt hopeful and motivated and were still community based,,,,

that would have been nice,,,

You ars so right msharmony. One of the few things today that I like. I can say how pretty you are or date another race, and not be told I'm a ____________.

Each decade had their good and bad.
'60's were ok for a little, but the assinations & turbulence.
50's - the music - birth of R & R, good country music, and the pop music was good. The movies wern't full of bad language & sex. But then there was the McCarthy hearings. (boy what if they had them today)
40's - people supported the war, entertainers joined the service, and others entertained the troups. Not an Alex Baldwin or Susan Sarandin in the bunch. Victory gardens, recycling even "your fat cans" (a radio blooper), buying war bonds in support, rationing everything for the good of the war. After the war things went good
30's - it was a bad time financially, but did pull together.
The late 1800's and early 1900 - is the time I'd like most - settling of the West, mining, cowboys. It was so neat to read writing of my great grand father.

I think I am from the era of compassionate cohabitation....with no fashion rules, no limiting labels or mandated extremist social behaviors...

I have no wish to live in the past.

I LOVE technology. I love air conditioning.

I like the social progress...we've a long way to go, but it's moving in a positive direction.

I wish I was old enough to enjoy the 80's. I could have made some money back then too, if I was old enough.

The 40's and 50s seemed pretty cool. The 20s and 30s would have been nice too.

The 60's and 70's, would just get me in trouble. laugh
