Toasting to a Better Time

NEW, Soul 1 Minute

To that better time, when smiling was because you were happy to see a friend, and tomorrow was so long away.

To a simpler time, when your friends were just as giddy and silly as you were.

To a more peaceful time, when you really did not know there were so many bad people in the world that did not like you because you were you.

To that time, we all want in our hearts, a time forever locked away. But, open that time for your children, because they have that time now. Do not sully their laughter with “the past”.

Let them laugh and smile.

Just like you did, in that “better time.”

I embrace an eclectic life, tastes, and friends. I love to listen to people - to induce speaking of their past. Sometimes, their voices end in my writing. For grammar perfectionists, allow me to apologize in advance, as I write for the casual reader, not the professional. My passions include my family, music, working in electronics, mechanics, stone, and concrete. Better to know a little bit about everything than everything about one thing. Quote from Pascal.
