Recently I have noticed that I am repeating myself – not just to myself, but to others. I am going to consciously try to stop this, since I remember my grandparents doing the same. They did not live to be the age I am now, so I guess it is good that I am older. BUT I do not want to be one of “those old people” who make younger one’s shudder.
My plan: to consciously think about what I am saying and to try to stop telling those stories. I do get carried away. I have a dear younger neighbor who says she loves for me to tell her about my adventures, and as those of you who have known me a LONG time, I have had more than my share.
But, as much as I love to talk, and as much as I love to remember those old times when I had all those adventures, I am going to “try” to stop reminiscing them, except maybe here. Then I will “see” that I have told them already once, already.
