Older People Can be Pretty Cool

Being raised by my grandparents I loved old folks. I loved them all until I was about 25, one day in the grocery store an old lady ran her cart into me, cut the back of my heel. She knew she hurt me and never even apologized. It was then I realized that old people were good and bad like everyone else. Then for years I hated teenagers, then after meeting a young woman several times and the kid was just sweet and kind. She was just 16 years old. Today she has one more year to go to become a lawyer, she is still sweet and kind and I still love her dearly! She's also a beautiful young woman. Then I met her mother, and she too is lovely and sweet and very kind!
 
Just found this. I have learned that old folks usually like to talk. More people like to talk than not. I have always liked to talk to others. Strangers. People from other states or cultures or far away countries. I loved my job as a PE teacher in Elem. schools. I asked the kids lots of questions. Met many parents.

I never imagined being without a spouse but that is how it turned out. I still have kids at home but its different. My ex wants to sell our houses and live together but we would drive each other nuts. I am out of the mix now because of my incontinence. And the surgery pretty much made me a eunuch. But I had a good life before that and am focused on solving my bladder problem. As for cool it is hot as the hinges of hell in Fla right now.....Summer heat 4 weeks early. Record heat today they said.
