    I want to go back and live it all over again. We had the best TV shows back then and lived in the last of the best decades in America..it was the party of a life time and we lived it well. We had the best TV then. Falcon Crest, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty to name a few and growing up we had, The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, and for the first time ever the motion pictures of, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, Close Encounters of the third kind, E.T., Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday the 13th, Aliens, (No not the ones being aloud to just walk into our country right now in 2023), Predator and many more… We also celebrated the bicentennial in the 70’s when the entire country celebrated it from Apr 1, 1975 - Jul 4, 1976. It was like the 4th of July every day. It was fantastic!.…it was such a better time to be alive in this county. We never had the problems that are here today. It was unheard of for kids being shot and men walking around dressed as women. It was the last of America and we were lucky to have experienced it.

    When you watch these 80's commercials and TV you actually see how life was more dedicated to family , love and patriotism.

    Man, these commercials brought back so many great memories, and from such a much better time in my Life, and in Life as a whole as well. 1985...I was just 5-6 years old at that time, and can actually remember a lot of these commercials. I'd do, or give, anything to go back to that year, but not to just be young again, but more so to just have all of my family back alive again. Getting older sucks a*s, and family members passing away sucks even more a*s. Insane how many I, myself, have lost just in the last 3 years alone, just as I know most others have as well, but it doesn't make it any easier though, or get any easier either. This Country, the World as a whole even, is so messed up now, and so beyond any kind of repair, that it's extremely disheartening, depressing and sad. Here's to the better times/days though...🍻.

    • @msbigdog1460
      @msbigdog1460 Před rokem +1

      Hey, I was 18 in 1985, graduated that year. I agree with you completely! The losing so many family members is the hardest part of all. Same for me, in less than 3 years my mom lost 4 of her sisters. Out of 15 kids in her family there's only 3 left. I know life changes, but losing the ones you love is the part that I hate so much. I, like you, would give anything to go back, mainly because all my family was alive and well then.
      But, at least we have our memories to hang onto and recall, yet those memories can also rip your heart out because you miss those who are no longer with us.
      My son is almost 20 and from the time he was small I have shared stories of how life was so different then than it is now, he too hates how times and society is now.
      I guess back then we really had no idea how good we had it.

      @@msbigdog1460 Most definitely. 100% agree with you. Back in September of 2020, I had to have sudden emergency/life or death brain surgery, and because of the surgery, my brain/memory is all jacked up now. Before, I had a perfect photographic memory, but now, it's hard to even remember something from 30 minutes earlier. The only reason I bring that up, is because everyday I wake up, I think a lot of family members that have passed, are actually still alive. Can't tell you how many times I have picked up my phone to call one of them, only to no longer find their numbers in my phone, and then I unfortunately remember. It's like a "Groundhog Day" scenario, having to relive it everyday. I think the hardest one, was my Grandma who passed away back in 2020 because we were like best friends. She passed when I had just gotten Covid for the first time/first year, and was quarantined because of it, so I wasn't able to even attend her wake or funeral. That, unfortunately, started the "snowball effect" though, and since then, family members have been passing on since 2021. Getting older sucks so much a*s. Lol.

To me, and for me, it's not even about being young again, not at all, but rather, just going back to a better time. Things were better back then...mostly because we weren't being taught this garbage that is now being taught to young children, and the s**t that they're all being exposed to now especially. This World, this Country even more so, is all so jacked up, and messed up, that it makes it even more sad to remember the past. Horrible to just think for a minute that things will, more than likely, only continue to get worse. At least we have the past in our minds though...until we get too old and start to forget s**t...lol.
