  • I came across this really awesome photo sequence of the Brown sisters over 40 years and just had to put them together with music. Several others had the same feeling I see.

    I'm 80 today, and soon to be 81. I think the same thing. I was a young man, it seems as yesterday.
    The years gain speed as we age. I never thought I would be older than my Parents this soon.

      Life is very very strange. Most people only think about their daily meal and their car. Buying stuff.
      I am 69. Longing for the times Nature still was Nature. When the oceans and the air still were clean.
      When there was silence and beauty. Hardly any cars. No muSICK in the shops.
      When people did talk to each other, looked each other in the eyes...... instead of watching their IPhones........
      Those were the days, my friends. They will never come back again.

      I'm so sorry for your loss. After both my parents were dead, there was still a lot of family conflict between myself and my three siblings. Eventually I contacted all of them and wrote "The next family funeral we attend will be for one of us." Since then, we have been in regular friendly contact, from different parts of the world, by letter, by phone and by Zoom meetings. The days of fighting our parents' proxy wars are over.

      If someone could explain why we SHOULD smile when photographed... Or even look at the spectator. If a photo captures the moment when you smile, or if the fact that you're being photographed on th particular moment / place / people around, fine. Otherwise it's pointless - or worse, hypocrit. Anyone can tell a spontaneous smile from a posed one. And a posed smile may conceal other signs of feelings.

    The photos were lovely…there were no smiles or laughter, but they must all be close if they meet at least every year. I have three brothers I haven’t seen for years. Unfortunately my mother never encouraged loyalty in the family and actually drove wedges between us. She hated it when we were getting on with each other. After my father died when I was 32 the whole family sort of fell apart. She’s 85 now and I haven’t seen her for 25 years and I never want to. Fortunately I have a wonderful husband and son which more than makes up for my previous dysfunctional family.

    Notice that as the years go by there is more physical contact. Also the contact is more intimate. In the first few pictures, when they have an arm around one of the others it looks like they are posing but as they get older it looks more like a hug. Also, they bring their faces closer together.

      I noticed the hugs got tighter. As we age, we realize we're running out of the time we were given here on earth. In 100 years, someone looking at your gravestone in 2121 will see you were born way back in the 1900s. Much as I look at old unattended graves while visiting my parents. Some were born 'way back' in the 1800s. Life goes on, and time marches on. People that lived in the 1500s probably thought they lived in 'modern' times. Just like someone who lived in the 1990s. How could they miss a smartphone, when it hadn't yet been invented??

    Someone once said life is a brief sliver of light between two black eternities. I can't remember who but you've got to make the most of the time you've got.

      the Anglo Saxons compared it to a small bird fliting through the hall . in one window out of the dark into the light for a few seconds then back out the end window into the dark.
      probably a sight they witnessed quite often

    Time, we just cannot stop it! This was a lovely progression. That they would care enough to do this is amazing! Why is it that a lot of men assume a woman who is not grinning or smiling is angry?!

      Wow, men who aren’t smiling obviously have greater things on their minds. Women are obviously just miserable old mares. Come on folks.

    Way 😎 cool! I never pictured myself growing old, but at 62 reality is setting in. Maybe this collage will help those younger viewers to embrace their youth while they can. It goes by much faster than you would expect. Thank you for posting.
