Does anyone feel old and useless with age?

Keeping positive is not always easy in a world filled with daily negativity. It takes effort, especially if you wake up everyday to illness. After reading Tuesdays with Morrie, I was inspired to live, to do all the things I wanted to do, but were inhibited by career, raising children correctly, and an overpowering religion. We tend to identify ourselves based on our culture and environment. Socrates encouraged us to "Know thyself". We all have strengths and weaknesses that relate to our purpose. Now, as I am in the "autumn of my life" I focus on leaving this world without regrets and imparting the knowledge I have taken in to those who will come after me. Look at all the wonderful and helpful things we learned that children today are not learning, making it quite easy for them to be replaced by AI. Can you help them to gain knowledge that is beneficial and wisdom? Can they not learn what to do or not to do by our own experiences or global events? Can you teach them to imagine peace and find ways to promote it? My dear, our years make us necessary to the next generations.

I think the comments about our children not learning Important lessons is so true. I grew up in a world of terrible racism. I thought it had gotten better and now I’m finding that it’s worse than ever. So sad. So glad my grand children thanks to family values don’t look at anybody who’s different as less. They try to learn from everyone.
