Inscription on the Face

What lines do the years write on your face? They write: "Elder"! That is if you are my age, walk like me, dressed up in sports clothes, at a time I consider to be lost time, that is, at noontime. You do not always see yourself as an elder. Some of the young passers-by who stop you, serve you by reminding you of the ability of the years to write on the face! I am not talking about coincidences, but about something that happens to me at least once, on a daily basis, every time I get out to walk. I may have told you before. I like that people ask me about places they do not know how to reach. They remind me of the word: "a wandering Aramean was my father" (Deut 26:5)! Today, I was stopped by someone who had, mistakenly, entered our area. I knew, from his face, that he was "wandering"! He also knew, from my face, that I am the elder who can help him. Every lost man is my neighbor.
