Hot flashes. They're the worst! I remember when I was in my 30's there was always that one lady in the office who had a little fan at her desk and I used to wonder ... WTF? It's freezing in here! I am now that lady. You wake up one day and in the body of a baby whale. You can't see without reading glasses and you can't remember ANYTHING ... and you suddenly realize .... without a doubt .... that you have become ... MATURE.
This is a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing about becoming mature is that you no longer care what people think about you anymore. The bad thing about becoming mature is that people no longer think about you anymore.
OMGSH! That picture looks like me!

ReplyDeleteIt's true. Whereas times past and other cultures respect age and maturity, our youth worshipping culture ignores it at best and disdains it at worst.
We got it all backwards. The people around and experienced the least, are looked to the most. The consequences have not been good.
I saw a bumper once that read: "Hire a teenager now, while they still know everything."
