A 93 y.o man speaking to me yesterday

[jhonny9546]

Growing old is the second greatest surprise of my life.
The first is our incessant need for deep attachment and intimate love. Everyone in the world wants to be with someone else tonight, together in the dark, with the sweet warmth of a hip, a foot, or a bare shoulder within reach.
Who among us has lost that desire? You never do.

Hi Jhonny,
Your curiosity and hunger for life seems insatiable,what an interesting Old Man you will be....Yes a 93 year old Roman would have vivid memories of living under Mussolini,the German occupation,the terrible bombing and the final liberation by the Allies...He would have lived through the hungry post war years then seen the resurgence of Italy,whose sense of style dominated the Sixties...Make the most of him Jhonny,he aint around for much longer!
