People I Like

Some people really like children. I've warmed up to them over time. I used to get really freaked out in nursing homes (and sometimes still do) but I've become more comfortable. I really like old people. They're funny and tell great stories. Sometimes they are cranky but sometimes kids are cranky. Kids can be funny and tell great stories. Hanging out with the elderly is way underrated.
I found this poem in one of my Shel Silverstein books and it outlines the concept really well. Also, I love that author. He's so great.
