I have not read the website, but I am a nurse, and I recall dealing with POOPs..... Pissed Off Old People. These were folks who had lived a very long life, and apparently were NOT happy about it. Yes, old age certainly brings its share of aches and pains and losses, and as I see the middle mile marker of my own life disappearing in the dust in my rearview mirror, I understand more and more about these drawbacks. But no reason for anyone to take that out on others, just because they are younger. I have often heard the old saying, "Youth is wasted on the young", and while I feel that very often is true, as a nurse, I came up with another saying of my own.... "Sometimes, life is wasted on the living." Everyone should either appreciate the value of the time they have been gifted with......or move on and see what's next.
