Our society is lost in a world of ipods, white teeth, MySpace.com and music downloads, while our elders have no voice and suffer dehumanization, simply because they are old. Why? Why are we dancing this whirling-dervish dance to a communal “death by frivolity?” Because we are afraid. To validate our elders is to acknowledge that we, ourselves, are mortal and will, “in the blink of an eye,” join them in their growing…then diminishing… growing…then diminishing.. gray and shadowy ranks.
