How Life Changes...


Soda becomes alcohol. scooters become cars. kisses turns into sex.

Remember when getting high meant climbing on the playground? 

Where protection meant just wearing a helment? When the worst you 

can get from a person was cooties? When your parents was your heros?

When race issues were just about who ran the fastest? A time when war

was a card game and the only drug you knew was cough medicine. 

Remember the time we couldnt wait to grow up?
