Story About Age

By Philip Pai, April 25, 2019 — When I was young, I lived with my mother. My father was a military person. Every day he just fought with the enemy.

That time I saw the young couple married I felt very excited for them. I hope someday seems like that. There were a lot of guests, friends and relatives attend the buffet. I dream I would have that wonderful day. When I attended primary school I saw the high school student. I thought there were very old. I expected someday I would graduate from high school. I remember when I was junior high my teacher was 25 years old. And another teacher was 36 years old who didn’t marry. People said he was so old, and didn’t marry. This guy had big trouble.
When I was 18 years old, I went to college. My teacher was 65 years old. A lot of white hair on his head. Right now I am [in my] 70s. I admire the people who are 60 years old. When I see the people who were 36 years, I admit the guys are good age. And saw the college students seemed like my baby. They are so young. They are too young to look.
Age happens to everybody. We can not keep it. Now when I see old people whose age [is] like me, I am very happy to see them. I thank God [gave] me so many days and age which I have had.
