23、My grandfather often complains about how things have changed, and says that life used to be better.

Families aren’t families the way they used to be. Many people are divorced（离婚的）. If husband and wife are having problems with their marriage, they don’t stay together any more. And mothers used to stay at home to take care of their children, but now not any more. Everyone’s working. No one has time for children any more. They are left for their grandparents.

And the cars! No one walks any more; everyone drives. We used to walk five miles to school every day, even in winters. And in school, the children don’t have to think any more. In math class, for example, we used to add, minus, multiply, and divide in our heads. Kids don’t use their heads any more; they use calculators.

Most families have computers now. In the old days, we didn’t have computers. We didn’t even have electricity. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. Nobody eats home-cooked food any more. And people don’t talk to each other any more. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think…

Life used to be simple, but it isn’t any more.

The day before the operation I was off school, and my mom planned the best day of my life, everything I loved at seven and everything that would put a smile on my face.

Throughout the day, she told me everything that she thought I would need to know to grow up and be a good person; she told me to be the best I could be and that I would always make her proud. We had a picnic in the park, and it was so cold that we moved to the car. The day was filled with laughter. For the first time in a long time I could see she was really happy. I would never forget her smile, or the way her eyes shone as if we were the same age. It was the best day of my life, and I will never forget the conversations we shared.
