I would not get my feelings hurt but I would not respect the person doing this enough to even want to listen to any advice they were giving me. I love learning and I love a good teacher who knows how to teach wisely. I am probably many of your senior but I am never going to get to the point that I am to old to learn. |

This is seriously one of the BEST POSTS I've
ever read on YT. Simple, True, Utterly Poignant.
