I just love seniors who ride sportbikes, ha-ha. It's so rebellious and contrary to our cultural conditioning! So effortlessly cool!
The old people I have no respect for are the ones who show me their utter lack of self-respect, and even less if they let their young selves die years ago. That's easy for me to notice.
I treat them respectfully, but internally, they're low in my book, because they're not giving me a good example to follow.
Any person of old age that at the least keeps up with me and at the most surpasses me in anything, physically or mentally, THAT is an elder to me.
When I see an old body but the person controlling it still hasn't gotten old, I get star struck.
It shows me the person is still in the fight and cares about how we younger people see them, even if diseases or out of control situations have made life harder for them.
The pastor in my church is a 78 year old Vietnam war veteran. He volunteered, too. Has several health conditons. Poor guy is an etcetera, but despite all the bad stuff he went through, dude behaves my age.
I tease him and prank him all the time just because he makes me laugh so much. He's got a fast mind and has put me in my place so many times, ha-ha. I'm proud of knowing him. He might not ride a motorcycle, but he would if his wife let him and his health allowed him!
