A reminder to us older folks
At times like these, when the world seems old and her problems insuperable, we should remember that this is how it seems to us, who have lived in her for however many decades, and seen the same problems go unsolved so many times: to the young, however it has devolved, the world is new, and full of wonder, and nothing is beyond imagination.
I often think that hopeful thought.
ReplyDeleteWorking with young political volunteers the last few months I have seen that optimism and excitement. It is hopeful, and I need to remember that when contemplating the current political situation in this country.
