I got this image from Scott. We certainly live in a different time than the one during which I grew up.  I doubt young girls thought much about this sort of thing back then. Oh sure, boys did; that certainly hasn’t changed.

But we evolve, sometimes for the better and sometimes into something that’s, well,  just different. I’ll admit that I long at times for the simpler life we enjoyed in “the old days.” We did all the same sorts of things but with less intensity, less abandon. We pushed boundaries but not as aggressively. And I think we actually enjoyed people and our lives more.

Today it seems as though we’re seldom satisfied unless we’re breaking down walls, challenging everything, pushing more limits and wildly reaching for whatever lies beyond. We call it progress and I suppose it is. Sometimes, though,  I yearn for the simpler life. (Click image for popup.)
