I have noticed a change in how I experience age and my place among other people: I used to be the youngest in most rooms, but now younger people address me as “sir.”
At an MBA college, 25-year-olds call me “sir.”
That experience makes me wonder where my youth went and reminds me that life is short, even if nothing extraordinary happens.

This perspective sits alongside the restraint in wisdom for life s ups and downs.
