In a time when everyone writes about fashion, politics and science-fiction movies, I decided to write about being old. It's not because I am actually an old person, I am 31, I'll hopefully get to be a senior one day, but it's not the case already. I just thought it would be nice to take a little time to remember. And that's one thing older people do a lot, and we often don't give them credit for that. We feel bored, we are busy, we get caught up in our Multilingual and technological world, and just put these thoughts aside. Like we do with older people.
Being portuguese, and very proud of my roots, I'll try to remember traditions, rhymes, stories, songs, I'll ask my grandmas, since I'm not old enough to remember all the beautiful things I'd like to keep. I hope that, one day, I get to remember my grandmas the way they remember about so many things. And all these beautiful things are worth keeping.
