How old are you?

Can we really judge by age? No matter what the case is, should age really be the issue? People tend to make excuses or put blame simply due to a number. Parents, friends, colleagues, are all, to mention a few, people with a purpose in life to just sit there and critique.

People at some stage or another face some sort of situation where they are forced to explain themselves. Be it for work, marriage, sports, or simply to go out, age always has to interfere.

The worst scenario has to go to the so called “spinsters”. I mean seriously? I don’t know whats worse, the naming of spinster itself or people actually calling someone a spinster?! I myself consider the whole marriage thing fate and for each and every person whenever the time is right for them, one special someone will come into their life. And who are we to judge what the right age for marriage is? No but wait, what kills me most is the fact that only women are considered spinsters while men aren’t I mean that just is a load of c***!

How about when someone marries someone older or younger then they are, the name calling’s endless; cougar, gold digger…etc again I believe advise here is necessary but when the decision is done then as good people we must only give our support.

There’s always the judging of when you are going to finish university, or school. Or the when you are going to have children because the clock is ticking propaganda!!

Things are better left unsaid sometimes, and people lack knowledge of when that should be the case. In the end those intended are only left heart broken, sad or with no hope.

What do you think? Let me know

those people are everywhere, we can’t just get rid of them otherwise the world will be perfect, problems-free and everyone is living happily! This is the rule of life, there are the good people and there are the bad ones!

I believe that we should never judge by age, and I stress on judging young people when they are knowledgeable and given an advanced role in work or any professional activity, ALL elder employees or colleagues start getting pissed off because this person is younger!! WTH?!?! what if he’s younger?!? He is hell better than the rest and better asset for the organization he/she belongs to!!

People can’t just keep their opinions to their selves and work on improving their skills and personalities, instead they just keep criticizing everyone, without even knowing what they are saying!!

Well said Ayo, a very true and realistic article!

Thanks
