What about the current world would be most surprising to your younger self?

Having the convenience of a mobile phone, more than a handful of television channels, and pretty much everyone having a computer are at the top of the list, but there are some other things.

Never did I think that politics would become so ugly. Never. It just amazes me how much anger is involved, and stoked by the news stations 24/7. I hate it.

Never did I think that, on days such as Memorial Day, Independence Day, Veterans Day, etc, I could look out on a whole street or apartment building and not see an American flag at every residence.

There are so many other things, like Zoom meetings, going to school & church online, and the popularity of mini-vans.

Dang, I feel old...

Honeychile, amen. I remember so well when the news stations reported the facts only and didn't try to slant the news or start crap. I also remember how wonderful it was before negative political ads.

I wonder what’s going to happen 10 years from now.
