the one where the elders are too happy

Have you ever screamed from on top of the mountain?. But nobody heard. No let me correct that, everyone heard, understood, but ignored.

Have you ever gone out of your way to make people realize something?. And then wondered why?
It amazes me; the capacity people have to stick to their crap, even when it's doing no good. People have gotten used to regretting later, and still not trying to understand where they went wrong. I've heard; if the older you get the wiser you become, then why is it that the biggest blunders are made by the old?

It's not just that trait that's significant, it's also the capacity to repeat them and have others follow too.Not everyone needs to make mistakes to learn, if you've got a brain, you'll reflect on the lives of others and learn many more lessons. That makes one wiser, not age. Age can sometimes make you arrogant, I believe a good elder person is the one who's always in touch with the younger. The one who's curious to know and understand the world that's in front of him. Living in your own bubble of denial won't get anyone anywhere.

Live and let live people!

  1. I've been there dear !!! but i know it's no use making anyone understand esp. the elders...im not saying they don't have the capacity to change...they do but it's just that they don't want to change that makes things worse ! pity i say !

    one thing i've learnt from this is that when i get older i will stay in touch with the child in me so that i never get tired of learning new things and adapting to the times :)
