Can They Cut The Mustard?
by Mary Wilson

Tuesday, March 31, 2009
Rated "G" by the Author.

Just a little humor. Don't discount us senior citizens. We are still very much alive!

 

Don’t think if you love us at our age that you will rock our world. 
You may be quite surprised with the whole event though we are not young boys or girls. Be prepared to be changed for life, for we are masters in that department. Don’t look at us with disgust or dismay because of our body compartment. 
 
Though we may be gray and wrinkled a bit don’t think you are teaching us something new. Don’t let the looks fool you. Been there, done that and probably invented it too.

Write on Mary! Only cows grow old, they say in my country.
Wisdom is gained through study in the School of Life not on-line lessons from the internet. Great write.

You are so right and I think why the young all too often find what they seek in an older/younger relationship. Perhaps they find out that experience in love and life is a wonderful thing to share.

Yes that last line certainly does "cut the mustard," though I prefer mayo...;-) Ed
