Whatever happened to the good old days, when your phone would ring and people called, just to say hello. When the days seemed longer and the work hours shorter , when laughter was heard from your neighbors porch and there was always coffee on; Whatever happened to the good old days, when children would play outdoors and we always made time for each other.

They dissipated in the gloom of egoism. you reminded me of Avon calling. At least they talked and laughed and had coffee even if no business took place. Hugs.
