Just like in nature

The ones most in danger are kids and old people but here I'm going to talk about the old. Stop scaring yourselves online, get out of your house and walkabout the world. Life hasn't changed, being all cooped up has made you fearful of the bright light outside.

@TheShanachie 67 years and you don't understand general ailments of a demographic?

The world has changed.

Its faster, less friendly, and old people are almost seen as inconsquential if not invisible.

They grew up in a different pace of life, when life was lived in a more physically and mindfully connected way.

You dont understand what it feels to be older. It can be the fragility of a child without the unadulterated, unknowing optimism of a child, coupled with 'no one sees let alone cares'.

Thats a feeling of vulnerability you are yet to comprehend.

@Jackaloftheazuresand ok fair comment.

But i wouldn't say going to a park and experiencing a moment is enough to claim that one knows what it feels like to be older, to say that that moment is exactly like a whole era.

All i can say is that one day you will understand what im trying to say.

Im sorry. I didnt mean to devalue the beauty that you see in the world.
Or try and dampen your enthusiasm.

That was wrong of me.

@OogieBoogie Thank you, maybe I will. And I hope if you are among them that this beauty reminds you of the good old days

@Jackaloftheazuresand Oh i see beauty in many days - sometimes something incredibly tiny, sometimes something quite fundamental. Sometimes something fragile and fleeting.

- Even awful trials and struggle can bring a type of beauty afterwards.

I suppose the most important thing is never lose the ability to see it.

I hope i never do

Good advice.

It should not be the norm for kids to live in a dangerous world.
