i hate the song ‘cats in the cradle.’  besides personal reasons for hating the song, i always realized the song was just depressing and miserable.  now i have three kids, and even though they are all girls, i always think about the time i would like to spend with them that just passes by.  the song plays in my head sometimes when i look at my oldest and wonder how she got so big already.  it is definitely a bummer sometimes.  the song, just as life itself, is just a reflection on society.  it is not the fact that we don’t have time but rather that society does not allow us to have the time.  there is a always a schedule.  when to wake up and go to work, what time the train leaves, when your favorite tv show comes on, how long they serve lunch hour, it is only available to this date.  responsibilities topped with the constant pressure of thinking you are missing out on something due to advertisements and media outlets is everything that is wrong with everything.  i hate the way things are in society just as much as hate ‘cats in the cradle’ and that is a lot.
