TO KNOW ALL

The problem is not to be 17 and think to know all but to be 70 and still think the same! © Demetrios Trifiatis 01 March 2017 *Inspired by a comment I made to Chris' Green comment!

I imagine so...I'm lucky my 17 yr old doesn't think she is smarter or wiser than others and treats all with kindness and respect. That is something I am proud of.

My saying doesn't include everyone dear, Tim! Happy to know your 17 yr old doesn't think that! Thank you my friend!
