"Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens."
---Jimi Hendrix
Today I met with an elderly woman, through a Friendly Visitor program. She is a real class act - very fashionable, very friendly, and very interesting. I went to her apartment building and we talked for a long time about her family, mine, her childhood and much more. I just loved listening to her stories, and she seemed to enjoy having the company. We are planning to meet again in a couple of weeks, at which time I will take her to see the new shops in Chevy Chase. I had forgotten how much I enjoy being around elderly people. They just seem so wise!
