Yeah, the times certainly changed. I can understand the urge to protect kids from dangers, but sometimes we are also holding them back by being to overprotective.
Same here. As soon as I could read I always had my nose in a book. Only competitor to those was the computer my parents got.
Never did write much, besides some journaling in my early teens, but I remember I could basically create a whole (small) school essay in my Head, before putting it in one go down on paper. Yeah… I totally lost this ability. The words are jumbling in my head and sometimes I forget what I wanted to write a few seconds ago. That got better after I picked up journaling again, tho.
The Nikon F100 sounds awesome. Those last SLRs before digital took over were beasts!
It was sure nice talking to you, looking forward to more conversations!
I can easily relate to that.
Could not have said it better. Hoping this will encourage others to share some of their own experience ;)
