「紅葉する老年」と云う言葉が好き。老年期、戸惑うことばかり。孫の名前がとっさに出てこない!愛用するお店の名前も失念!探し物で、部屋に入ったら、目的を失念!と、悩ましいこの頃なのであります。一方、巷では、「人生100歳時代」と言うフレーズを耳にします。「そんな事は学校では教わりませんでした」などと、愚痴めいたことを言っても仕方がない・・・・。後26年でそこに到達してしまう!店で立ち働いていると、「よく頑張ってますねぇ!」と、人様に褒められる事もある。こういう時は、気分爽快、元気が出るのであります。これはそんな老輩の日々を綴るものです。
I like the word "old age to turn red". Seniors, just being puzzled. My grandchild's name does not come out quickly! I have also forgotten the name of a favorite shop! When I entered the room with what I was looking for, I forgot my purpose! And this time it was a painful time. On the other hand, we hear the phrase "life 100 years old" on the street. It can not be helped to say a bitter complaint that "I did not learn such things at school." I will reach there in 26 years! When standing at the Cafe Blossom, "People are often praised as" I'm fine and well-being. " At such times, you feel refreshed and refreshing. This is the spelling of such old days.
