Feeling Old

[NightskyeB4Dawn]

That might have seemed a hill-too-tall for my younger self...

Glad you enjoyed the breeze/s...

I was a chimney sweep for a short time as a younger adult...and have many experiences from those times that, when considered, make me feel like I had the makings of a super hero.
... ... (maybe I was)

Often I look at the younger ones of today and realize they will be ever truly understand the life of my youth. Which is why it is s so difficult at times, to make sense of the youth of today.

I laughed out loud when I overheard a Mother giving her child a warning about staying safe, and to stop sticking the fire poker into the wood pile that was two seconds away from falling down on him.

Of course his response was, "I am not going to get hurt!" "Do you think I am stupid or something?" The same response young people have been giving, generations, after generation.

And of course the fire poker just materialized in his hands, and he had no clue where it came from.

So much remains unchanged, and so much is so different that it is almost other worldly.

And life goes on.
