Recently I read this line in a book I'm reading; "A man to amount to anything must be old." Perhaps the author didn't mean to imply that all old men amount to anything. 😃 So just becasue I'm old..... The context in the book was a young man who was working but not as effectively as the boss hoped. Being an old man that hangs out with many old men, that line amused me. In fact I had breakfast this morning with a hundred year old man, he turns 101 on March 23, who drove to the restaurant a number of miles on the freeway. He definitely has amounted to something but he did that long before he was old. The biggest surprise of old age is how fast it came.
Takk for alt,
Al
