For Those of Yew In The Commonwealth

[Steph]

I just listened to the Queen's message & I mest say, it was a great analysis of our current world:

"As older people remain more active for longer, the opportunities to look for new ways to bring young and old together are multiplying," she said.

"I am reminded of a lady of about my age who was asked by an earnest, little grand-daughter the other day: "Granny, can you remember the Stone Age?

"Whilst that may be going a bit far, the older generation are able give a sense of context as well as the wisdom of experience which can be invaluable," the Queen said.

I love the age range at Pixies. Age is of no matter when we're talking about our experiences & seek advice here.

I agree Steph. I think there is a depth of experience that comes with age and often an air of freshness that comes with youth. Then you have all us goofballs in the middle struggling for wisdom and clutching wildly at the carefree lifestyle we once had. Here at Pixies it melds into a community and is a beautiful thing.

Steph,

... and a great opening line.

"I have lived long enough to know that things never remain quite the same for very long."

Thank you. :)
