      Every decade is like that. It takes about 2 or 3 years for it to end. That's the reason early 2000s seem closer to the 90s than anything.

    Early/mid 2000s still had a 90s vibe to it. Overall, the 2000s decade ushered in a whole lot of changes in this world. Once I started seeing more cameras being put up in late 2000s, I knew things were definitely headed in another direction.

    I was a child around this time and every Summer day was spent OUTSIDE. Running around, playing with open fire hydrants, jumping rope, playing tag, roller skates, scooters, attending endless block parties, water balloon/gun fights, and so much more.
    Anytime I hear children playing on my block it makes me so happy because it reminds me of THIS. I mean it definitely doesn’t compare lol, but it’s a special moment for them.

      BNOZ99 ! I don’t think anyone loves poverty. However, people learn how to deal with it, and make the best of it, it’s a humbling experience.. which results into a form of unity and bond. Which is what I miss from these times.. no. I don’t like trashy areas. I love a clean neighborhood, however that was then, and I appreciated it, because it made me, now that I know better, I still appreciate it. It’s the moments that I miss & value, not the circumstances.

My younger sister is 11 years younger than me and it’s crazy how different our childhoods were. We’re moving towards the future while the state of the world is rapidly decreasing. To the point that I could never bring a poor kid to this effed up planet. Sucks that i’ll never get to enjoy this level of absolute freedom as an adult 💔💔
