Don't Miss The Transfer
It is an absolute fact that younger people are having fewer children. It is just as true that older people are living much longer than ever before. We have an ever increasing senior population and I don't know if we are seizing all the opportunities that presents. Our senior adults have something that is extremely valuable. They have life experience. They have been where we are going. They can tell us many things that will prevent us from learning lessons the hard way. The things that we are just now finding out are patterns, they have seen cycled through several times. It is just wise to spend time around seniors and open up our ears to listen to what they have to share. There is nothing new under the sun. That means the saying "been there done that" does have some weight. Why bump your head against a wall when there are people in your life that have seen that wall before and can tell you how to work around it? Have a great day listening at the feet of an elder!
