I've been feeling extremely nostalgic lately. I find myself saying, "remember when..." in almost every conversation. I don't think it's an age thing, because I'm not that old. I think maybe I'm just kind of in a rut right now, so I'm calling up easier, more carefree times. I had a great childhood. Sure, there were shitty things that happened, but nothing out of the ordinary. I don't know if the 70's and 80's were really safer, or if I was just made to feel that way by my small community and close family, but I really miss that feeling. I wish my kids could have the freedom that comes with that safety. It is hard to explain to them that times are just different now.

This is a post I started about a week ago, and have not added anything yet, so, I'm just going to go ahead and post it as is, and call it good. I'll be back later with something fresh.
