JAN 13 2026 Better World
When I played at recess as a young boy I had no worries. The life we had then is impossible to be repeated by 7 year olds today. Unless they're Amish or their parents don't let them around other kids and don't let them look at cellphones or the internet. The world we lived in then was completely different from the world of today. We were completely ignorant of any evil existing in the world. We were sheltered in a way that is hard to imagine today. I had no knowledge of anything in the world that could possibly hurt or harm me. The most terrifying thing in my existence was a wasp or bumblebee. Outside of that, my world was similar to living in a bubble, surrounded by pillows, and run by people who actually cared. I wasn't raised by strangers who watched me for money. I had a Dad and a Mom that I saw and talked to every single day. I never heard one swear word. The only pain I experienced was if I got spanked for doing something wrong. And that pain was temporary. I really didn't know what pain was or what it meant to be afraid. But I afraid of the dark. I imagined imaginary things and was scared. But if there was light I was afraid of nothing and no one. I understand because I live in the present world, that this is not something that can be experienced by any 7 year old child in America today. They are exposed to too many things and if their parents don't allow them to be exposed to it, their friends at school will expose them to the world or the teachers will. Who in their right mind would've wanted to become a girl when we were 7? This wasn't even something that we thought about, let alone gave any thought to. I have a computer, I have a phone, I see the internet, I see TV, I see TV ads. I have seen glimpses of what they consider children's shows. It's beyond anything I would've or could've imagined as a child. This destructive and sinister and vile and foul world has polluted the minds of the children, before they are even able to comprehend the difference between right and wrong. I can only look back and see what a beautiful world it was. Of course, there was evil in the world back then. But I was oblivious to it so it didn't affect me in any way. Today it's impossible, nearly impossible, for children to be protected from the filth that floods the airways today. I feel sorry for kids. I see the effects it's had on the minds of the young, the youth, this current generation. When I remember the world I had, I think of the world that will be. This one is being annihilated by the righteous judge and he will leave no wickedness unpunished. It will be erased! And then a better world, similar to the one I had as a boy, will take it's place. And truly the world will be a better place.
