Stories from the Elderly

Krish: ‘You won’t believe it if I say I haven’t tasted a hamburger in my entire life. The reason behind it is simple. When I was young, we didn’t have burgers in my village. There was only traditional food. At 20 I decided to be a veterinarian, and I’ve remained one until now. It was five years later when I moved to the city and saw hamburgers for the first time. You can guess the rest of the story, I think.’

Elizabeth: ‘I can’t believe that I’ve done this. Yesterday my grandson asked me to go with him to the mountains. He wanted me to ski with him. You know, I've never been an adventurous person, but I accepted. Right before my turn to start skiing, an old lady fell down and broke her leg. This made me want to leave, but I’ve never been a chicken. So we skied together, and it felt amazing. I think I’ve achieved something important. I guess I might go again!’
