I think Cedar has hit the nail on the head.
I wonder if anyone wants to expand on this, and how it might apply to their own lives.
I know that as I grow older, I see more and more wisdom in the things I was taught (and sometimes rejected) in my earlier years.
Gardening, canning, food storage, home cooking was something I didn't think I needed to do in my early adulthood. I came back around when I had kids, and more so all the time do I see the wisdom in that way of life.
