Time-turner

Things were easier when all I had to do was to go to the barber shop to get a hair-cut,
Things were easier when I had to purchase dress only during occasions,
Things were easier when I dint mind about wearing a comfortable dress ‘n’ number of times,
Things were easier when the shopkeeper had manners to give back even 10p,

Things were easier when sharing with peer was fun,
Things were easier when people really meant ‘Sorry’ and ‘Thank you’,
Things were easier when friends took efforts to call each other regularly even from landline,
Things were easier when fights were just a moment’s separation,
Things were easier when people accepted each other’s stupidity and still accepted them for whatever they were,
Things were easier when love, affection and passion preceded money,
Things were easier when the whole family lived in a single room and yet not once complained about space,
Things were pleasant when all I had to do was to wait for all the family members to sit down to eat without watching TV,
Things were easier when playing/fighting with cousins’ dint involve cruel intentions,
Things were easier when the fights with friends were just a day’s matter,
Things were easier when friends were more of an extended family,
Things were easier when ‘The mask’ was just a name of the movie!
