Old People

Do you ever stop and look at old people and wonder what kind of life they have lived? The other day when I was in walmart waiting in line I looked over at the other line and I seen an man about in his mid seventies. he was wearing blue jeans and a western shirt, brown cowboy hat and brown boot's. For some reason I tried to picture him as a young man. Tall, blonde hair, & blue eyes. Riding high on his trusty stead, rounding up cows, a dog running besides him. Then the scene would change to him throwing hay in the stalls with his shirt off, body fit from hard work and tanned from the sun. He stops and pushes his sweaty hair from his face. Then when the daydream gets really good I noticed the old man was looking at me. I turned away embarrassed at him catching me staring. lol. From that day I started watching older people and thinking of them when they were young. You have your war hero's, hard working women, a wonderful woman that cooked and kept the house cleaned, a business entrepreneur, a chef, there's so many rolls that come in to play. I try not to think of them as wife beaters sexual predators and murders. there's to much of that in this world. So I try to make it a happy one. you should try it it's kind of fun plus it makes you look at older people with a lot of respect and in a whole different way.
