[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1777467, member: 18945"] The age differences here are partially dependent on a couple of things besides when your grandparents were born. Which age your parents were/are in relation to their siblings. For instance, my grandparents were born in 1892 but my father was 1 of 7 children and their 1st born (1917) and he married young (age 19) so naturally his children (myself and my siblings) were/are older than any of my cousins (2 exceptions). To be clear regarding my initial post. I give no real thought to and care little if the person called greybeard is remembered in the usual way. My work while on the physical world is what I have issues with. My deeds. Good and bad. There are doers in this world and there are users of what the doers accomplish. I have tried hard all thru my life to be a doer, to make whatever little part of this ball of dirt I stood on at the time be better when I left it than it was when 1st stepped upon it or at minimum, be no worse off for my travelling thru it. That Greater Judge tho, will decide my ever lasting fate. [/QUOTE]
