That was a very nice post, Christie.
As Villagers, we do not have any young people as friends, but we meet them in restaurants and stores or when people come to work on our house. Almost all of them seem to be hard working and we treat them with respect. We ask them about their lives and hear some very interesting stories, especially from the local people. Well, I did tell one young lady at T&D that she was very rude, but that was the exception.
I always say that it is not easy being young. You are trying to figure out how to live your life in this complicated world and how to relate to other people. At the age of 71, I am much happier and more satisfied with myself as a person than I was 40 years ago, and I hope that will be true for all of the young people we meet.
