Old Men

Never underestimate the lives of old men sitting on park benches.

You should really underestimate the life of any person if you think about it. Because if you do, you are judging them on appearance and that’s not a good way to do things. You should really not judge the life of someone older than you because there is no telling what they might have done in all their years here on earth. He could be a war hero, an old movie star, a Nobel peace prize winner. You will never know if you do not actually walk up to them and have a conversation. Hell, that person could be nothing more than a father to a few and a grandfather to several more and there is nothing wrong with that because that means he has live a good, successful life thus far and is still going at it every day. And if he is sitting on a park bench, maybe he is just enjoying his life so far. Maybe he is enjoying a memory that took place in that very spot. Never judge someone just by looking at them. Give them a chance and they just might surprise you.
