Yup, it is really hard to remain sensitive in this world when you have had to learn to be tough to get through. I just try and look at old people and consider what type of old person I want to be.
The cranky, mean, cynical, hard nose. Or the type with wisdom and amusement in their eyes.
I like the latter, It is also important to work on our expressions, because the ones we use a lot are the ones that will be permanently etched on our faces as old people, and everyone knows what type of person we were and are.
...The expressions we wear a lot are the ones that will be etched in our faces when we're old. That's one of the best things I've seen anyone say in several days.
