As we age, we are blessed with the wonderful gift of aging, the gift that just keeps on giving and giving, resulting in unexpected obstacles that require us to constantly change and adapt our behaviour. So, the question arises, “How does one cope when things seemingly spiral out of our control?” The answers may lie in the following story.

 


There comes a time when we need to gently remind our middle-aged children just how sharp and on the ball we seniors really are. And what better way to do it than by handing them this book? It’s a read that even they can relate to, although they may not want to admit that maybe, just maybe, Mom and Dad still have their wits about them.

It’s the perfect way to get the message across: we seniors may forget the Wi-Fi password, but we haven’t lost our sense of humour. So go ahead, gift them a laugh—and a reminder that we’re still keeping up, one story at a time!
