Something in an email the other day made me think about the old days, and I mean the OLD days as in high school.  You know, pre-adulthood, carefree years in our teens.  Mortgages, power bills, phone bills, grocery bills, those are something dad pays for, we don’t even think about them.  We baby boomers grew up without social media, smart phones, iPads, Wi-fi, Hi-def tv’s.  Teenagers today probably wonder, “How did you guys even live”?     Well, we managed.  You don’t miss what you’ve never had.  I was reminded of a hit Bruce Springsteen song in 1984 called Glory Days.   The chorus sang, Glory days, well they’ll pass you by, glory days, in the wink of a young girl’s eye, glory days, Glory days.   Those days are gone for us boomers.  We have our memories though.  I played football and hockey, curled, ran track, taught swimming.  I was invincible and invulnerable, or so I thought.  Actually, today from the neck up I think I’m 35 but from the neck down my body says wake up and think again buster.   Life goes by all too quickly.  You think your career will never end, especially if you love what you do.  Next thing you know you’re staring retirement in the face and wondering how you got here so fast.  Hopefully you learn valuable life lessons along the way.  For example, time is more valuable than money.  You can get more money, but you can’t get more time.  And you may not be the smartest and most talented, but get up every day, get dressed, show up, do your best.  And never call in sick when you’re not.  Daytime TV was invented for people who do that.
