Learn From the Old

Have you ever thought about what you could learn from a senior citizen? Well, there are lots of things to learn! The first thing is wisdom, next is history, and last but not least, hobbies.
Being alive for a number of years can be beneficial. Wisdom is only one of many benefits of growing old. You can learn many things from a person who has been through life. One of the priceless wisdom bits could be encouragement for school or church.
You can also learn about history through the years from seniors. Don’t forget that they have seen things and people change, so they are pretty much “eye-witnesses.”
People back then used to have more hobbies than they do now. You could learn cooking, sewing or knitting from your grandmother. Woodworking, fishing or even games could be taught to you by your grandfather.
So, now do you think you should go learn something new from a senior? They could give you wisdom, history from a number of years, and hobbies they enjoyed while still young. Finishing off the story, remember that they were once like you, and you will be like them, so don’t forget about our amazing senior citizens.


Just an end note: As all people, we are getting older, and hopefully more mature, and we should be able to recognize someone in need of assistance. If you see someone having trouble getting up stairs, crossing a street, even holding a door, would be a good way to demonstrate the Lord's work in our lives. Anyway, hope you enjoyed my article!
