Room to grow

What I knew is what I know,
And I know I'm not through
Being a little bit bold, or
Knowing something new;
I may be long in the tooth,
But getting old isn't new;
I am still that same dude,
With that very same soul,
Who still has room to grow;
Can I say the same of you?

As should be, there's both honesty and pride in your words. Seems these days ignorance sees age as 'being past it', as if experiences gained in living life now have little or no meaning. What rot! Give me history on stout or trembling legs and i'll have the means of aging wisely! So there.

I am glad so can be a part of your morning coffee. I can smell it as you say it. Just had mine on the other side of the globe.
