Alrighty, so here is my song of the day from the 30 Day Song Challenge.
A song you like with a number in the title: 2's My Favorite 1 by Coheed and Cambria.
And today, I would like to share one of my favorite quotes from Grandpa Simpson on the show, you guessed it, The Simpsons!
" I used to be with "it", but then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't "it", and what's "it" seems weird and scary to me...…..It will happen to YOU!"
If you want to see the YouTube video of the quote click here.
I have recently felt like the things that I love and used to do aren't exactly happening anymore. I still have some bands that I love that are still together that I got into years ago. However, it seems like every time I sit down with my son Elliot, who will be ten in September, and watch YouTube videos, or he shows me songs that he likes, heck any Millennial that I know from activities I've done things with, the older I am starting to feel.
I love sharing things that I love with people, which is a big part of why I decided to create this blog, but the things I like are getting pretty old with me. There are a few things I love that have endured so many years, but other things I like are going the way of the Dodo Bird. I have an Amazon Echo Dot, and I feel like I die a little when I tell Alexa to play a certain song for me, and she says she can't find it, and I look it up on Amazon music, and it's not listed. It makes me kind of sad. Although, I am glad that I still like movies, old ones and new ones. I've been trying to teach Elliot how to appreciate both old and new movies. And it's a great time for bonding experiences.
So, maybe I'm not "With it", for what the kids these days are into, but I always try to keep an open mind and try new things that others suggest because there's a chance I might like it. I love trying new things, even if it's just once. At least I can say that I tried it and experienced it. Who knows? Maybe someday I will be with "it" more than I think.
