I know, they worked hard, but i woudl do that. Oh well, i guess I’m in this age for a reason. Maybe as I grow older and I’m out on my own, I realize that i never had those family values. My mom always told us the importance of family but when it came down to it, we weren’t very important at all. Or at least I wasn’t. She knows I feel this way, she has no regrets. she can be very shrewed. I wish i could’ve heard her say she loved me at least once during my childhood but I never heard it. Maybe that is what I’m longing for, the family I never had. In the movie I saw, the families looked so strong and loving. Plus, I hate technology, maybe I should be a catholic amish??? Maybe not.

ok, how about if we reverted to older customs, like family values, sustaining ourselves, less dependency on other people. If you could farm, build your own house and live like they used to in the past, maybe in a small farming community, without all the racism, early death, disease etc. would you? could you live with out technology (other than medical)?

Like living during the “Little House on the prairie” kind of idea… OH… me too… I would love to live in those times… Wide open spaces… Neighbors you could trust…

I was just reflecting on the moving, I think it is Far & Away…with Tom Cruise and Nichole Kidman… When they racing for free land… Could you imagine??? I am so in love with the idea, of living off your own land, your hard work and dedication to it and your family…NO TV!!! Yes… If only…:hmmm:

Although I wish I could be a fly on the wall at some events of the past, I would not want to live in the past. Two of my three children would probably have died from the scarlet fever they had, and I would have died four years ago from my ruptured appendix. I am most grateful to be alive today, thanks to modern medicine!

Nope. I desire what God desires of me… and He made me to live in THIS century… THIS time.

He’s got me right where He wants me. He’s got “things and stuff” that He wants for me to do. Right here. Right now. And that’s DEFINITELY “good enough” for me!

Agreed!

I didn’t answer the poll because none seemed to fit the way I feel.

I too long for a simpler time, this world is so full of crime, corruption, perversion, broken familes etc. And I absolutely love history, I find it fasinating to read how others lived.

But I was meant for this time period, so here I am, I probably would not have faired well in any other time period.
 
Unless I could go back to Jesus times and walk with him, and experience his miracles and witness his Glory and ascension…

I wouldnt go back further than the invention of air conditioning…I HATE the HEAT… which may be a good incentive to avoid HELL! 😛
