Are You A Fuddy-Duddy?

There is what seems to be
the eternal tension between the young and old.
The young think the old are fuddy-duddies,
while the old think the young are too ‘off’ tradition…

Till the young become old,
unmindfully becoming fuddy-duddies themselves…
who think the others are too ‘off’.
(But there are young fuddy-duddies and old folks young at heart too!)

The young are not always wrong.
The old are not always right.
The young are not always right.
The old are not always wrong.

  1. It not so much about age. It’s just that everyone has big ego and certainly would not want to be seen as any less right than another.

  2. I guess it’s about perceptions. Each generation has its own unique life experiences. It’s important to be able to share and learn from each other. Instead of looking at the differences, why not look for the positives in each other?
