It\u2019s funny how things come along in twos! Twice this week I have heard the idea that it would be good to be born with the wisdom of old age and, as time goes by and we become younger, using that wisdom to benefit our more youthful years.<\/p>\n
The first instance was watching a DVD set of the original Forsyte Saga<\/em> \u2013 in black and white and with very dated sets and production but also with such excellent acting that it still leaves you gripped! The other instance was less impressive \u2013 remembering the Mork and Mindy Show where Mork\u2019s son is born old. As you all know \u2013 if you remember back to 1982<\/em>! – Orkans like Mork age backwards, starting with elderly adult bodies but, in this example, with the mind of a child and regressing back to feeble “old” kids as they \u201caged\u201d – or should that be \u201cyoung-ed\u201d!<\/p>\n If you are a little bit on the older side, what advice or wisdom would you give your younger self if you could? Would it be to make different choices? To right wrongs never addressed? Or would it be simply to take things less seriously and enjoy life more? Perhaps you would advise following a different path, but, for me, apart from a few daft things I would rather forget, as one of the fortunate ones, I would not change a thing!<\/p>\n \u201cFor through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0Proverbs 9:11<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
