Episode 35 - Spirit of Adventure

Today, I take my "old man" card out and wave it around at the young whipper snappers, and say, "get outside and play!" But I also share that the way "old people" get onto youngsters now-a-days is not anything new. It sounds nearly identical to the way our parents got after us kids when we were young. We spent way too much time inside, were expected to play outside more, and, back then, were being ruined by t.v. and video games.

That said, after raising my own kids, I feel I have noticed an actual decrease in a spirit of adventure in our young people. And I try to invoke some of the dreamer's imagination we seemed to have in large supply "back in the day."
