This is so true!!!

A youngster asked his grandfather - Grandpa! How did you people live before with:

- No technology

- No aeroplanes

- No internet

- No computers

- No dramas

- No TVs

- No aircons

- No cars

No mobile phones?

Grandpa replied:

"Just like how your "generation" live today with:

-No prayers

-No compassion

-No honor

-No respect

-No character

-No shame

-No modesty

We, the people born between 1930 - 1970, or by extension to 1979 are really the "blessed" ones...

Our life is a living proof:

👉 While playing and riding "rented" bicycles in our youth, we never wore helmets.

👉 After school, we played until dusk; we never watched TV.

👉 We played with real friends, not internet friends.     

👉 If we ever felt thirsty, we drank public tap water not bottled water.      

 ðŸ‘‰ We never got ill sharing the same glass of juice with four friends.   

👉 We never gained weight eating plates of rice and eba everyday.          

👉 Nothing happened to our feet despite roaming barefoot. Very few shoes.

👉 We never used any vitamin supplements to keep ourselves healthy.         

👉 We used to create our own toys and play with them.      

 ðŸ‘‰ Most parents were not rich. They gave love .. not worldly material things.           

👉 We never had cellphones, DVDs, play station, XBox, video games, personal computers, internet, chat - but we had *real friends.

 ðŸ‘‰ We visited our friend's home uninvited and enjoyed their meals with them.

👉 We holidayed with relations & relatives lived close by, so family time was enjoyed.      

👉 We may have been *privileged* to appear in black and white photos, but you can find colourful memories in those photographs.

👉 We are a unique and most understanding generation, because went are the "last generation" who "respected & listened" to our own parents .... AND also the "first generation" who have to *listen" to their own children.

We are a "LIMITED" edition! Learn from us, treasure us and enjoy us while we are still much around..
