Contemplating YouTube Video Creations
I’m contemplating my YouTube videos for The Best Stuff for Kids. As of May 25, 2024, I’ve only done six videos, so it’s a beginning. I’m talking to kids, a group of folks who have been gone from me since I grew up myself. I never had kids; it just didn’t happen. Sometimes, I am sad about that. Other times, I am not.
Yes, there’s not going to be anybody in my old age to watch out for me, but many people are in the same boat I am. I’m just going to have to do that one by ear, which is how I’ve lived my life, so there’s nothing new there.
It wasn’t until I was middle-aged that I realized there really were no rules. I asked my spirit guide, Seth, who was in charge up there. I was expecting him to say God. He said nobody was in charge.
That was interesting.
Anyway, I find myself talking to kids. I remember my childhood years when I wished grownups would talk to me about grownup stuff and take me seriously. So, that’s what I’ve tucked into the back of my mind as I talk to kids about learning things. I mean there’s some grownup stuff you just won’t talk to a kid about, but that’s common sense.
I began thinking ten minutes was probably about the right length for the videos. I have since reconsidered ever since I saw our neighbor’s little girl…
