You are never too old…

Recently I attended a wedding and met a woman who was over 80 years old. She told me that she just learned to use e-mail so she could communicate with her family now that they were so far apart. Not only that but she swims almost every day.

This was my turning point. I don’t plan on falling back into the “I have know clue what to do with myself” rut again. If anything it will be a “I have no clue what not to do with myself” rut.

Based on observations at work and in everyday life, I have come to the conclusion that learning keeps you young. When you stop challenging your mind it has no reason to really work beyond the basics.

One thought on “You are never too old…”

  1. What a cool old lady! I have noticed, myself included, that so few people know what they want to be when they grow up. So, I guess I’ll have to keep learning so I can stay young until I know what I want to do.
