THE OLD MAN AND OLD LADY

THE OLD MAN AND OLD LADY

Physically, mentally and Spiritually

We all have the little lady or the little ole man living inside, keep living and they will emerge as we grow up we grow old. You've got to take care of yourself while you are young. And the old person you become can enjoy themselves in their golden years. Time to retire and relax, but, only if the younger version of themselves did put in the time to do things the right way. Grown up is a beautiful thing, but, becoming a sick elderly person is another thing. We start out as a baby. we grow and learn and become adults. It's as simple as that. Brothers and sisters can be complete opposites and not agree on important issues such as when they grow up how to raise their children and advice they give their own grand children, whether they are waistful with their money, food and so on and so forth They may not agree upon the very foods they eat or they may not agree that God is real. As we grow we have to be careful about the thing we allow our children to engage in  Something happens along the way as they grow up. GOD Physically and spiritually. 

Melisa was born in 1890 in a little house on the side of a creek, which kept their well from being drying up.  She was sickly, she rarely went to school. She cooked for the family. Every now and then she would look out the door to check to see if anyone was walking up the old dirt road that lead up to the house. When ever she would catch sight of someone walking toward the house, she would put the wood in the over and start preparing dinner for her family. Which consisted of her mom, dad, older brother and younger sister.  Back then there was no movie theaters or Disney Channel, it would be spooky for us, but not for Melisa because she didn't know anything else. Children back then in the olden days, had no electricity. They had to have a candle to see where they were going, at night they couldn't see their hand in front of their, because there were no street lights. 

Right now, Melisa is exactly 100 years old. It was easy for her to take care of the old lady, they ate what was in there garden, the chickens they raised under the house and drank the milk from their cow. Every now and then her Father who they called Papa, would go to the mill and have corn grinded into corn meal to make corn bread or to use for batter to fry fish he cauth caught in the river near their home. 

And take care of the old man or women who lives inside of you. And one day you will grow old, you will be healthy and happy!
