Childhood

Here's two interesting items I found on Facebook.

"The trouble with quotes on the internet is that it's difficult to determine whether or not they are genuine." -- Abraham Lincoln

I guess it's hard to distinguish between the truth and someone just pranstering.

"Me behave? Seriously?
"As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked.
"Cinderella arrived home after midnight.
"Pinocchio told lies.
"Aladdin was a thief.
"Batman drove over 200 miles an hour.
"Snow White lived in a house with seven men.
"Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos.
"Pac Man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance.
"And Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies."
The fault is not mine.
It was a wonderful childhood.

Yes, we all used to believe that fairy tales could come true.
Or, at least that some of our fantasies would bring fruition into our lives.
Then reality intervened and if we don't have faith, hope, love and great friends we might become skeptics.
I'm not a Grumpy Old Man.
I still believe in the power of positive thinking.
