How old is too old?
I am taking a class on creative writing at the university. Some of my friends have told me in no uncertain terms, “At your age? You’re crazy!” Well, that may be true, but I am enjoying the course very much. I could be the grandfather of most of my fellow students, but I feel fully accepted – the age difference is never an issue. Not only is the course interesting; it also makes me feel good!
When they tell me I’m too old to do something,
I attempt to do it immediately.
– Pablo Picasso
You’re never too old to learn.

Bruno’s commentary
Think you’re too old to embark on a new challenge or pursue a new idea? You aren’t. Being old is never a question of years. It is our attitude that gives us our real age. Have you stopped giving voice to the “little child within”? Have you used your age as an excuse to close your mind to a new experience or a new challenge? Actually, the opposite is the case. Our age and life experience are tremendous assets for us in trying something new, if we use them to our advantage. All we have to do is adopt the famous slogan “Just do it!” and a door will open to a new and wonderful world. Let’s stop using our age as an excuse not to pursue our dreams.
Is there something you’re not doing because of your age? Just do it!
