When I was 5, the big kids told me i was too young.
When I became a big kid, the teenagers told me I was too young.
When I became a teenager, the upper class kids told me I was too young.
When I got to college, the teachers told me I was too young.
I got my first big job, and all the older employees told me I was too young.
I started teaching computer science, and all the students told me I was too young to be a professor.
I then started a business and all my clients told me that I was too young.
I then went to work in the corporate world and all the senior leaders tell me I am too young.
Today, I told my mother in law about this and she said, well when you get to my age they will change what they say. They will then say, you are too old!

So I will never grow up it seems, so you know what? I think I will just stay young.
