retro
Just a moderately profound thought I had today, about the nature of past and present, and existence, culture and fashion:
“Everything we think of, all the technology we have, will one day be considered ridiculously old-fashioned. And, this will happen within our life times. We are old-school incarnate.”

Creative Writing & Poetry !, "Poetry and Beautiful Women" , All Out Emotion, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Core [C.O.R.E], Creative, Talented, and Unknown, Current Issues, First Things, Freedom In Words & Art, Freedom to Shine, Friends of RedBubble, Light In The Darkness, Live, Love, Dream: , On Youth, Shameless Self-Promotion, Up & Coming Writers and WMGWe are the retro of the future.

Thank, Levi. Just a thought that popped into my head today: the future, the past. They are all so interchangeable. I might write something about it…

Very profound – and true – I was talking about this to a friend earlier, I’ve lost count of how many times my old platform shoes have come back into fashion again !!! lol XX

Ha, yeah. It’s just an endless cycle. Reabsorbed and recycled.
Thank, Becca!

ahh love this! so true! I like how it’s simple with so much meaning. Kind of fun in a way, “Retro” is a fun word, I think. :)
Jordan Busson replied
Yeah, I just was thinking about life and everything else, when I thought this: everything we do today, everything we think of, all the technology we have, will one day be considered ridiculously old-fashioned. And, this will happen within our life times. We are old-school incarnate. We are the future, but the past, too.

We are old-school incarnate – I just laughed out loud at the reality of this…so true! Love how you have expressed it. I think this should be a quote all by itself. :)
Jordan Busson replied
I quite like it…
Thank you, my friend.
