In response to "Relevance"

I so agree with you about us seniors, in general.
Yet, then, there's those of us who live alone and try to be as independent as possible. We might have become a burden, here in the USA, to Social Security and Medicare, but we at least have worked for it and prepaid for all that, during our past lives. Not that all the people today can understand it!

True. I received an email from a friend. Maybe I didn't. But I'm in the U.S. The suffix was .de. Why do I need to respond to my invite through Germany? I looked up the organization, and it seems like something my friend would care about. Am I being scammed, or is this real? I plan to call her today and find out. After all, you can't trust your email.

Good entry
And yes, so true and so tiring that vigilance becomes! I'm afraid to answer any emails, let alone click on any links. I hope and pray things can get better before they get any worse.

In response to "Changes for changes sake"

I'm with you, phone-wise, Sue! I have a perfectly good flip-phone lying around. It still takes pictures, and may be able to send them via Bluetooth; I haven't tried in awhile, so I can't be sure. The reason I don't use it anymore, is because the Service provider shut down the 3G network it ran on. This forced me to start using my wife's old smartphone, which ran on 4G. I'd still be using it, except that it ran out of memory. There were times I couldn't even send a simple text message.

In response to "Memorable Experience "

Leaving one country to go to another is definitely a book worth writing, because so many people dream of it but never do it.

THe more years you live the more memories you have. Just a book waiting to be written.

In response to "Leniency "

That's typically the same penalty here in the states. You're right the lives they've taken pay a lot more.

In response to "Keeping up with the latest news "

I don't think it would be a good thing to remove painful memories because it's part of our evolving. If we had no painful memories how would we grow into a better person or sadly into a worse person like some do.

In response to "Olympics"

The skating is my favorite event followed by the luge and bobsled events. I agree the camera and drone coverage has been excellent.

In response to "Friends"

Nice entry. It, not having too large a group of friends, shows that you can see into people deeply and act sincerely in their presence.
I used to have several groups of friends when young, but in old age, life has thrown us all over the world and we can only communicate online and sometimes, not even that.

I see faces

https://www.writing.com/main/redirect?htime=1676471837&hkey=b0b141b8d908e503fccc...

This photograph really appealed to my sense of the ridiculous. I too see faces in the most mundane objects.
This particular photo of a seemingly simple broken branch could be a clawed hand or an animal with its mouth full of some unfortunate prey.
I used to love lying on the grass staring up at the clouds. They’re forever changing and no sooner has a shape of some animal or object is discerned it morphs into something completely different. It makes me wonder why I don’t look up at the sky more often. Perhaps it’s because if I lay down in a field these days someone would likely think I’d had a heart attack and begin CPR!
There is a dead tree I pass each day and I always imagine it’s the statue of a headless St Venus de Milo! I suppose it must be the brain’s attempt to give sense to an object not immediately recognisable.
