The Future has slipped from my grasp...


I was watching Wilson while he cooked lunch today. He was humming and singing to himself, and I caught the words, 'Come mothers and New Dads dum-de-dum-de-dum/Don't criticise what you can't understand/Your dum-dum-te-dum are beyond your command/Your old road is rapidly changing/Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a paw' etc, and I thought, Hang on, that's MY generation's battle-cry
But now I'm a part of the older generation, and the future has slipped from my grasp… It's now up to youngsters like Wilson to try to make a better world than the one we've left them with. Good luck with that!
