Encourage

And Learn

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 5 months ago 1 min read
You are never too old to learn new things

“Note to self:

you are not too old

and

it’s not too late.”

As long as we are alive,

we have the opportunity

and

the potential to do wonderful things,

no matter how old or young we are.

After getting married and bringing up a family,

an older couple may want to ‘live their dream’ of travelling,

opening a shop or simply

learning new things, like languages.

GO FOR IT!

Half of the time

it is having the confidence to,

so “believe in yourself”

because you can and will do it!

An older person

is a wise person with experience

and, very often,

a new sense of purpose.

Also,

when our grandparents,

and even our parents,

went to school as children,

there weren't the subjects to learn from

that we have today,

it was very often just the basics.

Let’s encourage our loved ones

and

learn from them.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
