‘An old man likes to return in memory to the days of his youth like a stranger who longs to go back to his own country. He delights to tell stories of the past like a poet who takes pleasure in reciting his best poem. He lives spiritually in the past because the present passes swiftly, and the future seems to him an approach to the oblivion of the grave.
Many are the men who curse with venom the dead days of their youth; many are the women execrate their wasted years with the fury of the lioness who has lost their cubs; and many are the youths and maidens who are using their hearts only to sheath the daggers of the bitter memories of the future, wounding themselves through the ignorance with sharp and poisoned arrows of seclusion from happiness.
Old age is the snow of the earth; it must through light and truth, give warmth to the seeds of youth below, protecting them and fulfilling their purpose.’
Kahlil Gibran
