You're only old if you act old

This weekend we have been blessed to have an Air Force reunion at our hotel. These guys were based in our region back in the late 1950's! They have been to Iceland and such. Oh the stories you can overhear just listening to these men!
At first I was a little apprehensive about these men because I kept hearing the phrase "you are too young to understand." I am not that old, but I'm not young either. I've experienced things in my life and I understand quite a few things. Please don't discount me because of my age!
But, this morning these gentlemen have been very thankful for everything done this week. I can't tell you how many times I have been hugged. And now I've been told that I have an "old soul" and they have enjoyed talking to me as well! That made me feel good!
These guys are so funny. You would think that eventually they would run out of things to talk about. But you know what? They have been up around 7 every morning and talk straight until around 10 or 10:30 every night. They are still carrying on spirited conversations! I guess you never have enough to say!
