“My parents took me to Disney when I was little. I’m nearly 50, single, with no kids, and the realization hit me last year. I started tearing up when I thought about it. I saw something on TV that showed lines at Disney, and I thought, ‘Wow, there are a lot of parents who have to stand in those lines for rides. I’m glad it’s not me.'”
“Then I thought about my parents: My mother would probably have preferred to be stabbed rather than go to Disney as she hates traveling, heat, humidity, and hotels. Yet she loaded up the car, bought snacks, and packed our suitcases. Meanwhile, my dad likes traveling, but to places like Europe. He had a high-powered job, and there would be work piled up when he got back from vacation, yet he still took time off, booked hotels, gassed up the car, and took us.
I never really thought about stuff like that before. My parents are both in their 80s now. I reflect on the things they did, and how quickly time has flown.”
