Eric and I talk about the incomparable mixed tape years, before digital music, before CD's. Those years were some of my favorite, and though I didn't know the Lord yet, He has certainly blessed me with great friends, great family, and great freakin' music.
God is so amazing to me, He is in everything good, even when we think we are walking alone, He is with us. I can see my life so clearly before I met Him and He was there. I remember the quiet moments, I remember what dangerous situations I found myself in and always seemed to be takin out of unscathed (well...most of the time).
Even talking about my memories about something as obscure as mixed tapes, it isn't just a piece of plastic. Those painstaking hours in front of the radio with your fingers ready to lurch on record and play . Life was so much simpler, people were more tolerant and neighborly, I honestly feel so much has regressed since everything went digital, especially music.
We would go to the record store, buy what we wanted and then we'd be able to see these epic performers for $20. We weren't glued to our phones, we were enjoying life, Praise God!! I am so thankful to be able to have lived in that time and this time too, every day is a gift, be thankful and get up!!
I hope you enjoy my Thoughtful Ramblings
