Childhood Glory Becomes Adult Joy

The funk ethos is to have a good time all the time, to move to remove. As we age we often forget about the things that made us happy as children. Many of those childhood memories do indeed translate to adult activities.

Witness JennyRollerSkating on Youtube. A competitive champ as a young teen, she didn’t put on her skates for almost a decade. But when she did it was magic all over again. In fact, you might find that you are as good or better than you used to be when going back to what you loved.

Most importantly, though, you should be doing it for fun and pleasure whether that was what kept you going as a child or not (chances are there was different motivation and more fear back then).

And no matter how far away from childhood you may be, remember that wheels are fun, and wheels not attached to cars, licenses, and seat belts are that much more fun.

Yes that’s the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the lakefront skyline of Cleveland as her backdrop. Go Jenny! If I spun like that it would end with new screws in my bones.
