The saying, “Be a Voice; not an Echo,” has so much more meaning as you attain true maturity; I now understand those senior persons who were so adamant about things in my youth – when I thought, “Who do they think they are!” Today I know; they had experience – wisdom, so often hard-earned; they had lived life which we youth had yet to experience.
My, my – how our perspective changes as we arrive where they once were. I so hope the current youth will listen and avoid our hard-learned lessons. God Bless us one and all on our journey , and may we all recognize that it really is as Alice in Wonderful told us – “I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.”
