Scary monsters

Frighten little children

Or they used to when their parents read or told them stories

Some parents still do

Today most children are watching Japanese cartoons on tv or DVD

.
Their parents so busy doing daily chores
.
No time for stories

Going going gone our myths and history

Few women today remember the stories of the past because their mothers didn't either

What will this mean to us?

Not sure however it will have impact just as children seeing violence on tv every day must have an impact

As ever mankind has little or no idea what will come of his current behaviour
.
So busy looking after number one

Only when we mature enough to understand that you are also number one can we progress

This seems a long way off today

Never mind make sure that your own children learn something about their forebearers

But then do you know anything?

Well you never bothered up until now so why bother for them

Ah so now we see how things get lost and disappear

They cease to have relevance to our lives

We just let them go being so busy with our world of daily events and activities

Ah so this is how life moves on
.
Just never got around to it
.
Never thought much about it either
.
Scary monsters indeed
.
Ours are still with us however
.
Ever thought that scary monsters are needed?
.
Scary monsters have their role to play in our own growing
.
Pity the children who never knew them.
