In my ’80s

November 25, 2018

Seniors sooner or later discover that they aren’t “up to date.”  Certainly true in my case, made the more obvious when I’m with younger people.

— a faddish coffee blend 

— the easy use of an app

— familiarities with pop figures

—  participation in a rugged mountain climb

— latest novels

— yoga culture

— sports celebrities

— hot Broadway musicals

— language idioms

— latest clothing styles

The list can go on and on. Perhaps we need the reminder that younger people don’t want us to try to be “mod.” Nor to brood about being out of the loop.
