Old Person Pride

Any old people blogging...... thought you might enjoy this one.

Old Person Pride

I never really liked the term " Old Person" but this makes me feel better about it! I got this from an "old  person" friend of mine.

Old people are easy to spot at sporting events; during the playing of the National  Anthem. Old people remove their caps and stand at attention and sing without embarrassment. They know the words and believe in them.

Old people remember World War II, Pearl Harbor, Guadalcanal, Normandy and Hitler. They remember the Atomic Age, the Korean War, The Cold War, the Jet Age and the Moon Landing. They remember the 50 plus Peace -keeping Missions from 1945 to 2005, not to mention Vietnam...

If you bump into an Old Person on the sidewalk he will apologize. If you pass an Old Person on the street, he will nod or tip his cap to a lady. Old People trust strangers and are courtly to women.

Old People hold the door for the next person and always, when walking, make certain the lady is on the inside for protection.

Old People get embarrassed if someone curses in front of women and children and they don't like any filthy or dirty language on TV or in movies.

Old People have moral courage and personal integrity. They seldom brag unless it's about their children or grand children.

It's the Old People who know our great country is protected , not by politicians, but by young men and women in the military serving their country.

This country needs Old People with their work ethic, sense of responsibility, pride in their country and decent values.

We need them now more than ever.

Thank God For Old People.

I was taught to respect my elders, it's just getting harder to find them.
