My Grandfather started many sentences with the phrase, “Let me tell you a story.” And sometimes I say that too, and when I do, I always think of him. He was a Farmer, and a really good man.
Todays society could learn a lot from their Elders if they would just respect them and listen to them. Their knowledge and experiences are priceless. Most societies in this world take care of them and don’t “dispose” of them like ours has the tendency to do.

My grandfather was a man of few words – but you’d better listen, when he said them !

Sometimes we reflect and amaze ourselves by what we have learned, and it seems imperative to pass it on, even when nobody asked.
