Do you remember life before the internet?
The best times in my life were before the internet came with social media. My family took summer vacations without having to post every photo on social media. We took pictures and put them in albums. We spent time together without looking at our phones to see who was watching our posts. We enjoyed each other. Those were the best of times for me—a more straightforward, more intimate gathering of our friends and families. Now, I don’t have albums and have lost so many moments to the internet photo albums. It isn’t the same.

I just sat and looked at scrapbooks over the weekend! However, this morning I listened to two young Japanese boys, one who spoke perfect unaccented English… who told the interviewer they had learned from watching tv, watching movies, and playing games in English. It was remarkable. They said they could not sit and read a book in English, but that they had picked up the ability to speak fluently. My conclusion is that the internet CAN be a help, and I admit it can also be a nuisance!

Yes I agree. I use the Internet to promote my business. The Internet has a great reach, but I still love those simpler times.

Yes, I do remember life before the internet… I feel sorry for our younger generation who doesn’t. We may not have had information in an instant but we actually had to research on our own to get answers to our questions. Life was so much simpler & our joys were simpler too! I miss it!
