These are the good old.days
When were the good old days?
My good old days were in my youth, about 150 A.D.
They are when we are young and free of burden. For me that is the 70s. I rode my bike wherever I wanted to go. Swimming in the lake across the street during the week and heading to the ocean on the weekends. Before any one heard of SPF and skin cancer.
Thankfully I am heading to the next stage if my life where I can play in the water again. And "old" refers to me and not the days. Only this time, I will be wearing sunscreen.
My "good old days" are yet to be...
The good old days for me was when I had to be home when the streetlights came on. They were the days before cable TV, internet and cell phones. People actually talked to each other and had to make the effort to see those that they really cared for.
The good old days.
Biking around Golden Gate Park and across the Golden Gate bridge every morning. Trying new restaurants every week. Concerts at the Filmore, Regency Ballroom, and Warfield. Endless shopping, community events, and tourist watching.
These days kids and dogs needs a yard and pool.
Well, Didge, I suppose they were before the internet; before it was so easy for people to hide behind their computer screen and be mean and insulting to others, and rally others to join them, simply because, say, they didn't like a question that was asked, or the way it was asked, on a sight such as, oh I don't know... Blurtit, for instance, who's very name implies that a question can be blurted out without a lot of thought or agonizing over.
I think the world would be a better place if we assumed the best of people rather than the worst, and acted on that. And instead of making snarky comments, simply asked questions to understand each other better. HA! Like that'll ever happen! So easy to hide behind the internet, isn't it? Makes crowd mentality and bullying sooo much easier for the truly mean-spirited.
Good old days? Why old ? We have good days everyday. We are in good days. God saw we deserved and he gave us "life"! And life is full of good days. I believe everyday is a gift from God. If we be happy and celebrate days we are "Thanking "God ..!
God bless you
The good ole days were back In the 60s and 70s gasoline was a quarter pepsi was a dime that was the good ole days
While I remember many wonderful things from my youth in the 50's and 60's, I remember the bad also. So I have to say that the only thing that makes the good old days good is a poor memory and a good imagination.
