About my eccentric and energetic 81 yr old dad, from this blog post - I miss this wild man and hardly ever see him. Thanks brother David Marshall for passing this along. The amount of institutional knowledge and general wisdom sent out the door is clearly undervalued. I was struck by this — quite forcibly — after meeting at our annual authors retreat a vibrant and connected man whose chronological age is 81. He freely shared his rich life experiences, his insights and his life force. People were eager to engage him in one-on-one conversation (and most of us, with a few exceptions, are hardly spring chickens.) The entire community was enthralled by his exuberant and indomitable spirit. Then we were completely blown away when he outdanced everyone at our Saturday night festivities. He didn’t take a single break as the DJ played rock, R&B, zydeco and swing tunes for more than two hours. Not one! Yet most people would look at him and just see an “old” man. What is up with that? yogawisdomatwork/blog/2013/10/23/pqjc93lr55vf25lbjllh15sype46ncpqjc93lr55vf25lbjllh15sype46nc
