Take time to talk with older people, you will learn a lot. They have done things, and experienced times that you will never get a chance to do or experience. Their wisdom should be revered, listened to, and taken to heart. They have a lot of wisdom to offer to those smart enough to take the time to listen.

How I wish I were younger! I'd do this in a heartbeat! I'm going to tell my son about this. He's been doing problem tree care and is aiming toward becoming a fireman. I've tried to encourage him to be of service to humanity, maybe he will see about this as a career instead!
