always listen

always listen

to those older than you

you may not think that they are as educated / sophisticated as you are

but they have life experiences that are lessons only taught from living & through time - which you may not have had yet

do not laugh at their advice / their stories 

they are only telling you things because they care about you

and what they say is most likely to be things you will learn sooner / later yourself


always listen

to those younger than you

you may not think that they are as experienced / civilised as you are

but they often have the most intrinsic and honest opinions that "grown-ups" loose as they become more self aware, self defensive, and mislead by society

do not laugh at their expressed thoughts

they are only telling you things because they have no other intention but to tell you the truth, which does not happen very often anymore

and what they say is most likely to be things you have initially seen / felt / thought, but have suppressed / twisted / ignored (that animal instinct) ... and have subconciously deceived / denied yourself of that honest opinion
