So beautifully said..WHEN I WAS OLDWhen I am old...I will wear soft gray sweatshirts...and a bandana over my silver hair...and I will spend my social security checks on my dogs.I will sit in my house on my well-worn chairand listen to my dog's breathing.I will sneak out in the middle of a warm summer nightand take my dogs for a run, if my old bones will allow...When people come to call, I will smile and nodas I show them my dogs...and talk of them and about them......the ones so beloved of the pastand the ones so beloved of today...I will still work hard cleaning after them,mopping and feeding them and whispering their namesin a soft loving way.I will wear the gleaming sweat on my throat,like a jewel, and I will be an embarrassment to all...especially my family...who have not yet found the peace in being freeto have dogs as your best friends...These friends who always wait, at any hour, for your footfall...and eagerly jump to their feet out of a sound sleep,to greet you as if you are a God,with warm eyes full of adoring love and hopethat you will always stay,I'll hug their big strong necks...I'll kiss their dear sweet heads...and whisper in their very special company....I look in the mirror... and see I am getting old....this is the kind of person I am...and have always been.Loving dogs is easy, they are part of me.Please accept me for who I am.My dogs appreciate my presence in their lives...they love my presence in their lives...When I am old this will be important to me...you will understand when you are old,if you have dogs to love too.-Author Unknown ...

This...A Lady asks: "How much do you sell your eggs for?"The old vendor replies "0.50 ¢ an egg, madam" .The Lady says, I'll take 6 eggs for $2.50 or I'm leaving. The old salesman replies Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live. She bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that she had won. She got into her fancy car and went to a fancy restaurant with her friend. She and her friend ordered what they wanted. They ate a little and left a lot of what they had asked for. So they paid the bill, which was $150. The ladies gave $200 and told the fancy restaurant owner to keep the change as a tip...This story might seem quite normal to the owner of the fancy restaurant, but very unfair to the egg seller...The question it raises is:𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙙𝙤 𝙬𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙬𝙚 𝙗𝙪𝙮 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙮? 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆? I once read this somewhere ,that a father used to buy goods from poor people at high prices, even though he didn't need the things. Sometimes he paid more for them. I was amazed. One day I asked him "why are you doing this dad?" Then my father replied: "It's charity wrapped in dignity, son."I know that most of you will not share this message, but if you are one of the people who have taken the time to read this far... Then this message of attempted "humanisation" will have gone one step further... in the right direction... ... See MoreSee Less
