An old man's message for the young
It is spring and young people are graduating from high school and college. I have grandchildren who have reached this point in their lives. They all have hopes and expectation as well as views on what the world they live in should be like. When asked what I think, this is my response. I was born before computers, internet, cell phones and even television where I lived. My world was very different then the world we have now. Statistically I have only a few years left and you have a life time. The next generation will shape this country not old people like me. The only advice I have is remember your physics, every action has a reaction and an ancient philosopher said for every decision there is a consequence. Your actions and decisions will make the world you must live in. Look past what will benefit you today or what is trendy now and weigh the reaction and consequences be they socially, economically or environmentally because you are shaping the world you spend your life in. That all this old man can offer. Good luck.

Do not, as conservatives do, shackle yourselves to the past always look ahead and move forward.
I would not want to be treated the way republicans want me treated - same goes for most religions
