the difference between

Growing up, I know we had our bored moments... But I don't rememberbeing bored very often. Barbies and dolls, dressups and paper dolls, mario and toast, princesses in the back yard.... That's a lot of what I remember doing. Besides all the mischevious stuff! I sometimes wish curiousity and imagination would be more common place with children now-days. They like tv and video games but are still bored and never in the mood to do anything creative that doesn't include tv or video games.... I wish they could listen to music-any music- and see a picture in their head or feel something or want to do something and to express or interperate what they are seeing into something tangible. Something they can be proud of and say "look atwhat I made!" To their family and friends..... Instead it is now "I beat that level.... Now I'm on the next one." Every once in a while that is fun and refreshing but where is the fun in saying that?
