End of an Era!!!!! (Read if Bored)

Ok so as of next year One Life to Live will be done.... Yes it is an end of an Era! Alright so those that know me know that I watch this show.. but you probably don't understand why I do... First off I think soaps are cheesy....they are.. but I've been watching this show since I was 6. It was because growing up we were really poor...I mean really poor!! But on this day I really wanted to go play outside with my friends but my mom didn't let me because I had gotten suspended from school do to fighting... something that I did alot back when I was young... so she made me sit right next to her as she watched this show called One life to live. I remember thinking this is Fucking Hell... I hated her for that....waste of my time...well for the next 3 days she made me stay in and I had to watch everything she watched.... after the third day I was  hooked.... Had to know what was gonna happen next... well good thing for me was that it was close to summer so everyday around one me and my mom would watch the show together...probably the only time growing up me and my mom actually bonded...weird huh? Most of the time I took beatings and hated her etc.  But when this show was on it was as if we were close. So when I heard that the show was gonna be off starting in January after 40 something years well I can't help but get some what sad....I mean I'm not gonna cry or anything but there's few moments growing up that were that pleasant for me and when I watch the show I remember my mom sitting on our old torn up couch and me sitting in front of her watching these actors living out some drama filled existance....kind of sad to me because I realize that everything in my life has changed or is changing... to friends that aren't really friends anymore... to people dying... MJ's Death... the end of an Era.... It sucks that things can never stay the same.... I watched an episode of the Wonder Years the other day and I could still remember how I felt when Kevin's dad died and him and Winnie didn't end up together....sad...no more Nintendo, Sega, Cassette players... Jordan dunking over the Knicks... Tyson destroying people in the ring......My innocence is gone and I'll never get it back because now I really know how the world works.... the psycho's out there...ruthless people and fakes everyone out to do anything to get what they want.....I don't ever want my child to be like that.... Hopefully I can give my child some good memories... you things that when I'm a scent in the ground they can look back and smile....wasn't just a stupid soap to me but a time when I believed anything was possible!
