Who's in There?
Welcome. This blog is about old people - who we are inside. Our bodies are beginning to wear out, though we have new knees, new hips, new eyes and new ears. But -- we have old eyes to see what we could not see before, old ears to hear what is not said. We have quiet, we have wisdom, we have knowledge and an opportunity for peace. We have the freedom of invisibility, sometimes not a bad thing.
We make fun of ourselves -- "senior moment," for example, where we all laugh, ha, ha. And we joke about our clumsiness with cellphones and new technology, though many of us are quite swift in the new world. But "Who's In There?" It's us, real people with real and deep feelings.
It's going to be hard to wait for the next installment!
