On the first day of school, Jack found a little old lady with a warm smile.¡°Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I¡¯m 87 years old.¡±she said.
¡°Why are you in university at such a YOUNG age?¡± Jack asked.
¡°I¡¯m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids, and then retired and travel.¡± she answered.
Jack knew she¡¯s joking but he was surprised what encouraged her to be here at her age.
¡°I always dreamed of having a university education and now I¡¯m getting one!¡± she told me. We became friends. Every day they would talk after class. Jack always enjoyed listening to this ¡°time machine¡± as she shared her wisdom(ÖÇ»Û) and experience with him. And Rose easily made friends wherever she went.
At the end of the term, Rose was invited to make a little speech. She said, ¡°We don¡¯t stop playing because we¡¯re old. We grow old because we stop playing. Being happy and achieving success may keep you staying young. If you have a dream, hold on. When you lose your dreams, you die.¡±
¡°Anybody can grow older. That doesn¡¯t take any talent(Ìì²Å) or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change...¡±
