"The hard part about life is that we understand it backwards, but we must live it forwards."

Isn't that the truth? How many people say, if only I knew then what I know now!!! I guess my best advice is to look at older people around you and learn all you can from them. I always tell my kids you can learn something from everyone, even if it is how not to act.

We are blessed here to have many intelligent, kind, and respectful older people who are willing to help and encourage younger ones. It would be wise to heed their counsel.

Melissa, you are right about heeding counsel of our elders. Too bad so many elders have lost their confidence.

Some people have to hear my wisdom whether they ask for it or not!
