Ever since I was a little girl, I love the way nature tickled my senses. The smell of fresh cut grass still reminds me of when I used to play and roll in the grass. Grass covered stains was over my white shorts, and my mother would fuss about how dirty I had gotten.

***now, health nuts eat lemon grass and dandelions

     The smell of rain moving in, while the dust stirred in the air. It reminded me when I didn't mind getting wet and mud was a creative way to make pies. I remember how the mud squished between my exposed toes and the warm water actually felt good on my little tender bare feet.

***now, ladies pay for mud bathes and mud packs

      The fragrant flowers so brilliant and colorful. I would use to take buttercup flowers and apply the pollen to my face in order to give it a glow.

***Now, women pay millions for cosmetics and plastic surgery to alter an already perfected gift by God.
 

I remember when...things were simplier
