LOSING A FRIEND

This is a very touching story about life, death and friends...

It's certain to strum your heartstrings and touch your soul.

I normally don't share mushy stuff with everyone, but this one I couldn't help...

I'm still choked up over it.

Found another video.  Sorry for the poor quality.  These are really old files so I'm surprised to even find them on you-tube.

WE DIDN’T HAVE THE GREEN THING BACK THEN

Yesterday after shopping in our local supermarket, I was in the queue at the
Check Out, and heard when the young cashier suggested to the much older lady
that she should bring her own grocery bags, because plastic bags are not good
for the environment.

The woman apologized to the young girl & then sighed, "We didn't have this
'green thing' back in my earlier days."
The young clerk responded, "That's our problem today. You folk didn't do
enough to save our environment for future generations."

The older lady said "Ah yes you're right -- our generation didn't have the
"green thing" in its day." She sighed then continued:
Back then, we returned milk bottles, lemonade bottles & beer bottles to the
shops. The shops then sent them back to the plant to be washed, sterilized &
refilled, so those same bottles were used over & over, thus REALLY were
recycled. But we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day.

Grocery stores put our groceries into brown paper bags that we reused for
numerous things. Most memorable was the use of brown paper bags as book
covers for our school books. This was to ensure that public property (the books
provided for our use by the school) were not defaced by our scribblings. Then
we were able to personalize our books on their brown paper bag/covers. But, too
bad we didn't do the "green thing" back then.

I remember how we walked up stairs because we didn't have an escalator in
every store or office building; walked to the grocery store & didn't climb into a
300-horsepower machine every time we had to go 200 yards.
. . . But she was right. We didn't have the "green thing" in our day.

Back then we washed the baby's nappies because we didn't have the throw away
kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up
220 volts. Wind & solar power really did dry our clothes back in our days. Kids
got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new
clothing. . . . But that young lady is right; we didn't have the "green thing" back
in our day.

Back then we had one radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And if
anyone did own a TV, it had a small screen the size of a handkerchief
(remember them?), not a screen the size of a football pitch. When cooking we
blended & stirred by hand coz we didn't have electric machines to do everything
for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send by post, we used layers of old
newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we
didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push
mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to
go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. . . . But
she's right; we didn't have the "green thing" back then.

We drank from a tap or fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or
a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens
with ink instead of buying a new pen, & we replaced the razor blade in a razor
instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But
we didn't have the "green thing" back then.

Back then, people took the bus & kids rode bikes to school or walked instead of
turning their mothers into a 24-hour taxi service in the family's expensive car
or van, which cost what a whole house did before the "green thing"..

Oh and we had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to
power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive
a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the
nearest leisure park.
. . . . But it so sad this current generation laments how wasteful we old folks
were just because we didn't have the "green thing" back then? . . .

[Wrench]

How true that is...but we didn't have the green thing either

[chouette]

Let the truth be told, thanks for this insight Mr. Panda!

[Jazzy]

Yup... I remember...

[chouette]

Don't mind me, just cleaning up the spider's web in Vinny's Clubhouse...
