A Family Called, “The Walton’s"

By HRM Deborah

There was a time in America, when the average person did not overly emphasize about being a super power or excessively on patriotism, but about something more important, called living.

I first came into contact about this apparent dust ridden element of American society, when I was in my early teens by chance from a simple family program called, “The Walton’s.”

While I did not get to watch all the episodes of this program, it also did perk my interest to learn later from some of my reading, listening to older Americans and wonder yet what happened to a society that forgot that materialism was not so important, being bigger then the next guy or putting blame on someone else, was not so important; but living, family, hard work and sometimes as an individual to do the right thing was?

Furthermore, people could still look in the mirror and be happy with themselves.

Nevertheless, even in these more modern times, one listens to the older American’s wondering what happened to there country and just what went wrong or they will say it is the government that gave us all these troubles and some people listened to them; while they are worried, what is to happen to them next.
