Who decides when it isn’t? Is there a voting process? Or do we just say screw it & flip the status quo? I like the powerful simplicity of this one

Thanks for reading.

It’s more about accepting the present moment.

I tend to say that when I see that there is no other way. Nicely done.

I thought I was you were going in to a Bruce Hornsby song ” That’s just the way it is. Some things will never change. That’s just the way it is. But don’t you believe them”.
Nice!

Thanks Fia and Alexandria for reading and taking time to comment.

Good story. I love the “Wa,,,?” lol

Fantastic work, my friend.

About the same time as your story, I was living in East Chicago, Indiana. Near Halloween there was a parade, and all the kids wanted to be in it. I had a play guitar, and my mom slicked my black hair back and drew some sideburns on me. My black leather jacket topped it off. As we walked, I was chosen for a talent contest at the local movie theater — like yours. A bunch of us lined up, a guy put his hand over our heads and people clapped. I won first place as Elvis — a little wiggle put me over. I won $10 too, so I figure I was the first paid Elvis impersonator ever! Ha! My mom kept half.

Oh, good write, as usual. I know I took up a lot of space, but that’s cheap online, huh?

Ha! I can just see little FlatDaddy Elvis with his hair slicked back. Thanks for reading.

Thank you. Hair was an important part of life for a lot of us.
