I may not live long enough to see it happen but I firmly believe one day there will be retribution and hopefully it’s peaceful but I doubt it

Are you old enough to know how things were during WWII and after?
Schools, church, reunions, polite, helpful, loyalty, honor, respect, homes, etc..

All the above has changed.
During WWII, men were serving.. Wives went to work. Kids came home from school to empty house.

I remember some years ago, my young son got off the school bus, came in the door.. Said he could smell those cookies coming up the walk.. Home made and warm, timed to be ready for kids..

My growing up.. good memories.. Didn’t have much, but life was not bearing down on us. A bike to ride.. A bar across 2 small trees.. A swing.. A garden to work in. A strawberry patch..

No car, no TV, no electricity till I was 11.
Running water was run out and pump it.
No bathroom.. Stove had to be started on cold winter mornings.. Laundry was an old fashioned MayTag wringer washer.. And it took all day to do a week’s laundry.
Ice man brought chunk of ice for ice box.

That is a short summary of what is gone today.
Compared to today.. What bothers me?
Rude, gov forgot the people, lying, kids have too much and want more, teaching Jesus is not happening..
