The world is dying
You know what I realized today as I watched You’ve got Mail? That this world is no longer real, no longer full of love and no longer alive. This world is controlled by corporations, politics and what everyone believes has been done wrong to them.
My fondest memories of this world when I was younger was going grocery shopping with my family when I was younger in the small time businesses. As well as, the meals that use to come from them. I remember knowing who was waiting on me and they knew me. Can you say that about the world now when you go shopping? Do you think if you were going through a bad time in life, that your grocery store would help you out? Or the town would come to your house and help you? That wasn’t a part of my life but I remember being told about times when it was. Times when everyone worked whether it was being a housewife or being the carpenter. I wish times were like that again. Simple. Sweet.
I cried today when I watched that movie which was the first time that I have seen it. I’m sure most people seen a love story where I seen a dream that will never come real again. I am not talking about love happening to a person but the way a person can truly love a place. I know you may say “I LOVE this store cuz its soo awesome!”. But don’t you realize that you truly don’t. To love something you have to love everything about it. The people. The atmosphere. The smells. The memories of past moments. Ect. Those types of store or either dying or dead.
This really hurts that my kids will never see this world through the eyes of being in love. Yes you can love you kids and the man or woman you are with. But to wake up and walk outside and take a deep breath and feel soo in love with life is no longer reality. Yes money can make you feel these things but after time you stop taking those deep breathes and wishing life could pause. All you do is think about what else you want or what you don’t have and how unfair it is. I am not saying that I haven’t been like this. I am saying that this movie has moved me in ways I didn’t think I could anymore.
Corporations have killed the American dream no matter what others might say. Yes they gave us jobs but not jobs we are truly proud of. I wish it was back in the day when the town got up and everyone walked out on their porches with their coffee to wake up with the roosters crowing in the background. Yes I would soo miss the “So called” finer things in life but life would be A LIFE!
It breaks me that my kids will look at this world as it is and believe that this is how it should be. I wish everyone would just stop what they were doing for one week and just be with your family with no repercussions. The lights go out. Oh well, light the candles. Let’s have a family meal and not think about how much better life would be if I was on a computer, watching TV, playing a video game or even in air conditioner. Yes life was harder back then but people really loved back then. Today you have no idea if anyone truly loves you because they can say it but a few months later they have falling out of love and they are sorry they broke your heart, yada yada yada.
I’m just saying I miss the nostalgia in life because I truly use to love Christmas but it has became a pain to me with wondering if I can get the best thing for my daughters that they will love. And that usually means something expensive. Not a doll that I will remember getting like I did. I remember Christmas as being full of soo much love and the nostalgia of when it rolled around use to hit me but for the life of me I can’t remember when it died in me. This pains me soo deeply that I am crying as I am typing this because life will never be life anymore. It will always be a struggle to help my kids grow up in a world where it is truly dead and will never breathe a breath of fresh air again. So I am going to try and find ways to make solid memories of good times for my children soo maybe they can pass on alil bit of the old life to their new life.
PLEASE do this everyone. Take a look at this world for what it is and please don’t comment with negativity to this post because this is my heart truly broken open to the public and if no one reads it, that is fine but if you do..Do not judge. Thank you

Many in England feel the same about the loss of our 'corner shops' and their personal service in so many towns and villages, and the small independent ones that were locally founded in them, squeezed out by multiple chain stores. So many village shops these days seem to have the look of urban supermarkets in miniature. I feel with you here.
