Old Age and Senility

The Crystallady

When you reach a certain age in this country , you are automatically thought to be senile.
People of all ages open doors for you. That's good.
Stores may give you a small discount on purchases. That helps.
However few remember that even with failing heath ,
some of us are still sound in our minds,
if not in our bodies.
Old people are not necessary senile .

"The old gray mare ain't what she used to be "
but she may have more honesty
and insight than some of the younger generation even thought of.

This has been a week where headlines bouncing around the world,
It has caused me to pause and wonder, what is happening to the America I grew up in.
Christian are hoping and praying that it is time for their Christ to return.
Yet the same people are dancing in the streets
because a man , however bad he was , was hunted down and killed
in the presence of his family.
Assassinating has replaced law and order
In all the years since Jesus Christ walked this earth ,
we have not progressed past an "eye for an eye" mentality.
Why spend money on bringing these bad people to trial.
Just spend the money on a vigilante group that can serve as a judge,
jury and executioner . In the case of Osama Bin Laden the once CIA
agent was thought or even known to be the master mind
of many terrorist attack on us here and abroad.
Some things blamed on him were actually work of others.

He was rumored to be dead for many years. Most of the time,
these dastardly people brag about their evil deeds. Wear them like
some kind of badge of dishonor. How ever this man always claimed that
While he was happy at what happened in New York, 911 it was not his doing.
Sometime , somewhere the truth will find it way out.

With all that is going on in the world, earth quakes in Japan,
radiation floating around, People trying to over throw governments all over
the world, this is a time for all people to take some time contemplate
and try to change what can be changed to make things better..

Most seniors have their minds on trying to survive in this economy.
Not many of us have money or power to change much about our world,
The majority of seniors never got the education and training
to enable them to lay up treasure from our early years for our later years.
We are just a negative number for those that run our states
Taking up space and draining the resources.
But there has to be something we can do on the local level
to have our voices heard.
We had better get involved on our local level .
"Where have all the good people gone "
