I really like adults.

I think that most young people shrug off adults. They're boring. Uninteresting. They have nothing in common.

I am just always so fascinated and inspired by what people do and know. I so enjoy talking to people about their lives. About what they have done and about what they still want to do.

The other day, I went for a hike with 5 men and 2 women who were at least 35 years older than me. It must have looked absolutely ridiculous. But, I loved it. They just talked to me the entire time--having an opinion that reflected the accumlation of experiences that comes with years. Living. The older I get, the more I realize, too, that it is not the events in one's life that makes them interesting, or the experiences that one has had. It's really just the act of living. This all brings wisdom.

My mom really likes old people. Maybe I get this from her.
