[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You will probably be like them when you are their age. You think you won't, but you likely will be. As my grandmother used to say, it's no fun getting old. Look through fresh eyes and have some compassion.[/quote] OP here. I've met concentration camp survivors who are more pleasant to be around, who even smile more, than my parents. That's the point. I thought you're supposed to grow wiser with age. My grandmother lived through the depression in an apartment with roaches and 6 children and didn't act this way. She was denied an education by her parents who thought girls were only good for extra money (child labor ok because it's more money for us and she didn't act this way. These are the same people who reminded me every day of my childhood to love Jesus and thank him for all I have and be grateful. What happened to that philosophy? [/quote]
