Life was simple, slow-paced, not many people were expecting much of you.
If you did something wrong, the whole world didn't have to know.
Celebrities weren't what they are today; they were famous for doing good, and for putting effort into their career. Children were safe, adults were safe, and the world seemed like a safer, happier place to be.
The fact is, now we know too much. We know about what is out above this earth.
We know what we have done to this earth. We have extrapolated data into the future, just so that we can "feel better" about what's to come. I'm not so sure. I think we are all too unstable to just believe in ourselves, others and the way this world works.
I wish I could go back in time where women wore sensible clothing, cared only about their children and were courted respectfully. If only we could get back that way of life, the way that people respected themselves. The way they would not wreck their lives at the age of fifteen with bodily harm. The way children were not violent, adults were not violent and the way that love could be everlasting.
If only...

I share your sentiments Bella. Minus all the romanticizing- this civilization is in a downward decline. It is frustrating.
