The Joys of Hanging With An Older Crowd


Recently, I have been hanging out with some older ladies. I've joined the 5.0 ladies interclub tennis team. While we may have a difference of opinion in our views on music, bed times, and quality TV shows, the one thing we can agree on is an appreciation of youth. My youth in fact. In the company of an older crowd, the young one of the group is often on the receiving end of a myriad of compliments. The compliments are rarely because the person is anything special, just because she is young, firm, and can still move without extreme knee or back pain.

"Oh to be young again."

"I just can't move like I used to."

"You have your whole life ahead of you, just wait until you get to be my age."

Hanging out with older ladies makes one realize how great it feels to be young. They seem to appreciate everything about you or at least your youthfulness, and in return it makes you feel better about yourself. See the old are good for something.
