Take It Further, February

Sharon B's challenge for the month is the question "What are you old enough to remember?" Like everyone else, I've thought of historical events (many are the same as others, but some of mine go far back), but I've also thought of more personal things connected with my childhood at the farm, and my family. I'm thinking of using an old photo in some way, but everything I think of is the sort of thing I've seen done several times, so I'll keep worrying at it until something comes out that speaks to me, I guess. Bob Dylan's words "I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now," keep going through my head. I'm going to try to work them in. Since this is just for personal use, I guess Bob wouldn't sue.

In the meantime I progress S-L-O-W-L-Y with the Hoffman Challenge.

I think of those words often because I took too many things too seriously when I was young! What a great way to approach the question, Kay.

When we are young, we want be older and more mature and as we age, we reach out for the child in us! good luck with your challenge.

Those just might be my favorite string of words from Dylan--and I love a lot of them becaue I am a huge fan. I have a second blog named for that, My Back Pages, but I don't write in it.

Can't wait to see your Hoffman idea...

Love Dylan's lyrics. I'm certainly more "mellow" than I was back then.
