Old Friends Talk

What do old friends talk about?  Bowl movements!  OMG.  You know you are old and have a really good long time friend when this is the topic you can discuss.  Right now this would be a serious topic for us old folks.  On the other hand, we seem to laugh at what we thought were serious problems when we were younger, such as leaving a purse or wallet in a restaurant or store. The point? Serious, anxiety-ridden, frightening problems most often become laughable years later.  Rarely do current serious problems stay either current or serious.  So why let your current serious problem get you all twisted up?  If you can let go a bit from your own "disasters" you might have energy to be of service to someone with a real ongoing problem.
