My first thread hopefully.

To those who believe that youth is all one needs to understand the universe and all its myriad problems and that youth is the only key needed for a solution.

My body has been through a lot; it has served me well, but it is wearing out, as yours will too. My eyes, which have seen so much, need help to see clearly now. My hands won’t open a jar like they used to.

Yet, my mind is sharper than in my youth. It has been sharpened by all that I have seen, read, heard, and experienced.

I am 67, I am not ready to die. I am not ready for anyone to discount the life I have led, to annul my experiences. I am not ready to be told I do not matter, nor have my thoughts swept into the trash can.

As I aged, I took more time to reflect, to not make snap decisions, and to think a thing through fully from all sides. Youth is exuberant, quick, and living in the moment. A sound future demands one look far ahead and like a game of chess, play out all the scenarios in one’s mind.

Do not let a slower body, nor a wrinkled skin fool you into thinking that the mind is slower also. Inside I feel 18. You won’t know what that is like until you reach the age when your body begins to do what all bodies must do, slow down.

The young shine with boundless energy, and some wonderful ideas. The young also have a lot of living to do, a lot of pain to go through and a lot of learning via that living.

Each year will see a young person grow wiser, more thoughtful, more empathetic, and more able to base decisions based on sound facts, hopefully.

Humanity is best served when everyone has a voice, when all ideas are explored and no one is discounted for any reason. Dear youthful person, think how you would want to be valued as you age. Trust me, you will not want to be cast aside.
