Is not interesting that you come across the younger ones and older ones too, frowning upon the old and elderly?
I wonder what goes on in their minds at that time.
I say this because if everything goes according to plan, the young ones of today will age away to where the elderly are, right now or then!

Those people are ageing in grace, but you are frowning upon them because?
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself; “what can I learn from these “wazeeyi” I am treating badly”?
They surely have more life experience than you do.
They are probably more humble and peaceful than you.
Not forgetting, perhaps more tolerant than you!

Instead of laughing and mocking them for being too old in your world that is still very young,
Get into a conversation with them and listen more to them than speak with them.
Remember, the key to it all is “ageing in grace and not be frowned upon”!
What a write-up.
I embrace the old .
We need to accord them respect and learn
👏🏿🙏🏽
What a great suggestion and I fully agree. People that are older than us have a lot more experience, wisdom and life stories that can be useful for all of us.
😍👏🏿
We need to both respect and Liston to people who are older then us. Because they won’t be around forever. Thank you for sharing this with us!
😍👏🏿
Yep, all of us will age in time, we can’t avoid it. And it is interesting to learn from them since they’ve had way more experiences than us.
😍👏🏿
Great post! Thanks for sharing!
😍👏🏿
I completely agree on respecting the elderly, learning from them, and caring for their needs. I’ve always treated others how I want to be treated – with dignity and respect.
🙏🏽😍👏🏿
All the worlds wisdom comes from the older generation, we should revere them.
🙏🏽😍👏🏿
There is much to learn from older people. This doesn’t mean that ALL older people are filled with wisdom because some are not. But overall, they do have much to share and we need to listen
🙏🏽👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Only smart people get to be old. It’s best to appreciate wisdom.
😍🙏🏽👏🏿
I hope I can age in grace, but honestly, I don’t have the energy for it now. When my kids grow up, I’ll be already old. Boo, sad story.
😍😍😆
Wisdom is something very rare nowadays, but respect is the foundation of it all.
😍🙏🏽
This is such a true post and good reminder! Those who have aged should not be frowned upon! They have more life experience than all of us!
😍👏🏿
Thanks for sharing. I’ve had mixed results with how open-minded my elders are willing to be.
👍🙏🏽
Never make fun of the elderly ever. I agree one day in the future we will be where they are now. So, be careful. Very interesting post!
😍👏🏿
We should show empathy and kindness to the elderly. Especially since we will all be elderly at some point.
😍👏🏿
