Thank You tiny Humans

My phone used to have a chord attached...and required analog dialing
Come to think of it, at one point, if it rang and no-one was home, it just rang...

Now, we don't have a "home phone"... our cell phones are surfing the internet, call forwarding to our skype accounts, and I text more than talk...

I hated trying to get the antennas "just right" to see a picture on NBC... then when the antenna went away, the cable bill, then satellite bill seemed enormous... now I just pay a simple $40 bucks for internet and get everything on line, highspeed, in HD...

Block Buster? hello Netflicks.

Light bulbs used to go out every other week -- and at 60 watts per bulb... lets just say my electric bill was yucky.. now my bulbs give off more light and only use 11 watts... what's more, they won't be changed for several YEARS...

My convection toaster oven cooks food faster and with less electricity than the oven we had growing up. Our microwave wont give us cancer.

My refridgerator as a kid didn't make ice, then it did, then it poured water, then it poured water and dispensed ice (both crushed and cubed)... now ours does all of the above, uses 1/4 the energy, auto controls the humidity, and I swear it can think... maybe not

I used to have an Atari, then a TSR 80, our upgrade was the commodore 64 and then the Nintendo... today I have a quad core, 64 bit processor gaming machine... and an Xbox 360, and wii.... did I mention that my keyboard and mouse are wireless?

When I was 4, dad would scold my sister for wasting good "tapes"... now I run through blank dvd's like yesterday's paper... whatever happened to the mix tape?

Walmart has EVERYTHING that JCPenny and SEARS only dreamed of having...

Speedracer gave way to GIJoe and Transformers... I loved cartoons... now they are movies with Actors.

Graduating Highschool was terrifying, because it meant leaving my world of friends and fun behind... letters and emails of promises... internet... then myspace and classmates.com (who would really pay when we all knew it would someday be free?)

Now Facebook.. well, here we are aren't we...?

don't forget calculators... I thought solar powered calculators were cool... don't ask me how to use a TI-83, ti-85 or those hp ones...but we have them.

Encyclopedias that noone read to Wikipedia... and Google...
Toll booths that we all avoided to EZ pass...

Clothing stores were targeted to girls... now express, BR, AF, GAP... all have guy clothes... and that's cool...

And who ever invented the Kureig coffee maker is my hero...

Life is pretty cool

Simple Truth

You are loved deeply. If you haven't heard the words or felt the touch of love, then you are not listening to the right music nor holding the right hands.

Noone should die thinking that love is far away. Love is here -- always.

It is whispered in your ears all the time, all day long. Learn to cancel out the noise of a distracting life, and learn to feel loved.

Love others and you will find peace, rest, and sanctuary.
