old people

Hanging out with old people-

Now, I spend some of my hang out time with old people. My Nana in Calgary lives down the street and she’s pretty old at 92. My other nanny lives in New Brunswick and she's even older at 98. When I spend time with them, all I can think about is how the world has changed for the better and the worse too. For instance, I was talking about how hard it was to memorize this poem for one of my classes, and my Calgary nana, in between bites of her  dinner, recited it perfectly by memory.  It shows how different both education and expectations have changed over the last 75ish years. But then they had to grow up without TV, ipods, dvds and cell phones. What are your thoughts on old people and how they look at life?
