By Charles Box, from one of his lessons:
On a recent visit to Cracker Barrel in Greenville, Alabama I let my wife out at the door to try to make things easier for her. Husbands should honor, help and encourage their wives. Peter wrote, “Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” (1 Peter 3:7) After I parked the car and was walking in I saw a beautiful blue and white motorcycle. It had a neat side car so I stopped to take a quick look. It was a good-looking bike. We ate at a table beside a couple that was about 10 years older than me, so you know they were old folks. When they finished their meal I watched as they arose to leave. The man took a few seconds to get up and get his balance with his walking stick. The woman arose with greater ease than he but she too used a walking stick. We were beside the window. I watched as they stopped beside the motorcycle. I assumed they were taking a look like I did. Then I saw them placing their walking sticks in the side car and getting on the bike, he on the bike and she in the side car and ridding away. This made me do some thinking about growing old and old age.
