Something that really makes me think about life
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.

Re: Something that really makes me think about life
Wonderful Quote
How true this is, getting old is not a bad thing, we become much wiser in our growing years. As we are kids we are taught to respect our elders, i have always felt more connected to older people as i was a child, i found much more wisdom in their words. But i followed the younger crowd going against what i knew i should have done, just wanted to fit in somewhere, i made mistakes but i learned from them.
I embrace whatever comes my way, i know that i will grow old, and i love getting old, it means i am getting closer to leaving this body behind and moving forward on my journey.
This quote reminds me of the cycle of life, being all these at one point is what life is all about, and a beautiful journey at that. As a kid respecting elders, and as an elder respecting kids.
Many Blessings
