Sad for a young wife with a baby on the way.

Many older people enjoy various new pursuits and interests but the one they share in common is that of giving courage to those still on the way. Each old person can be a model for those who may be dreading old age. One of our really old friends famously said, “Old age is not all it’s cracked up to be!” Especially when every year seems to steal something from you – a dear friend, your lower teeth or your driving licence! It’s essential to remember that time steals from everyone and is not just picking on you!

To grow old with dignity demands discipline. You see it in the faces of those who do. It comes not from one big dramatic decision but from dozens of right decisions made each day: the decision to sit up instead of slouching; the decision not to have ‘just one more’ drink; the decision to stop eating before feeling stuffed! And decisions of the spirit – keeping involved and interested in everything; avoiding self - pity and bitterness.

The voices and faces of some old people give them away. They didn’t develop these overnight. All their lives they’ve been feeling sorry for themselves and blaming others for their plight. In old age they are the same – only worse!

When you meet people who are at peace with their lives, Like Dan a friend of mine, they seem to spread a light around them whereas the disgruntled ones cast a shadow across the day. It’s not exactly a joke.
Life is for living.

Maybe they could try rubbie noses like the Eskimo

Looking at it from a Thai view point
well the farang generates income
everyone wins
the Bart filters into the village

You are more than welcome farang big smilles
No there is no need to worry, farm away
just make sure you can and will turn the other cheek.
