Age and values
Why when you learn a person's age, you start jumping to conclusions about him? For example, if in front of you is a girl and she is nine years old, you will probably think: "Oh, what a silly little girl, she has seen so little in her life, she is on a swing and smiles quite innocently ... Everything is so easy for her now, everything is still ahead."
And in fact, when she was five years old her father died. A year later, her beloved older brother had an accident and died, too. Her mother could not come to terms with the two deaths and became an alcoholic. And as a result, when the girl was seven, her mother died. Only grandmother was left and soon died from a stroke. The girl lives and rejoices now that half a year ago, a good man found her in the street quite thin and frozen, he brought her to his home, fed, watered, and then put in the good hands of his sister, who the girl calls her mom. Yes, she remembered all her life, starting with the tragic death of her father and ending with the death of a beloved granny.
This girl came up to the boy, a little older than she and asked:
-" Why don't you listen to your mom? I've been observing you, and I don't believe you that you love your mother very much. "
And he answers rudely:
- "Why do you care about me, shallow? You have nothing in this life, you're only nine years old!"
The girl paused, and then, with tears in her little brown eyes, she began to speak:
-" When I asked my mom to buy me a meal, she waved at me with her hand and continued to slurp alcohol. When you ask your mom to do anything, she runs to you with all legs trying to make it better, but you still dare to find fault with it. When my mom got drunk so much that fell asleep on a bench in the park, I came to her, covered her with her old blouse, kissed the cheek, said that I loved her and fell asleep under the bench. You can't say your mum "thank you" when she covers you with a warm blanket at night. "
Having said these words the girl took the boy's hand, squeezed, and then let it go. She looked at him with her still tearful eyes, turned around and went back to the swing.
Age - it's just a figure that says only one thing - how many years have you lived in this world. Age is not only the characteristic of a man - stupid or smart. You can be with a wounded heart when you are nine. You can be a naive fool at fifty. It all depends on the event that a person has experienced, and not on the number of years. Everything depends upon the conclusions a person makes going through this or that. You can't say that the man is stupid, only when you learn how old he is. What is more, you should appreciate what you have. Then nobody can call you silly.
