If you ever get the chance to talk to a hundred and two year old you will see the world a complete different way. They will show you what a fulfilled life looks like in story form. They will give you the best advice. They will make you realize the situation you’re in right now, you will get through it. It will make you stronger. After having the chance to talk to a hundred and two year old for hours among hours I’ve learned to really appreciate the little things and not take anything for granted. I’ve learned to really see things because one day I might not be able too. Now I make sure to listen to what people have to say because one day I might not be able to hear them. I move my body as much as I can because one day I won’t be able to do that without help or even at all. I’m thankful I can make my own dinner, get dressed and use the bathroom because one day it might not be so easily. I learned to cherish friendships, take pictures and live each day not like its my last but like its a blessing. The thing I took to heart the most was this, even tho they cannot do the things they used to be able to there spirts are still so uplifted. They still laugh and have joy. I look up to my one hundred and two year old friend and one day when I’m hundred and two I hope give a 16 year old girl the same advice.
