I have seen this before but it has been some time. It reminds me of me standing 9at age 29) on a college campus and telling the "college age" people around me that I am not sure I should be doing this because i'm too old. When I glanced from that group over my left shoulder a lady who had to have been sixty stepped to my side and calmly said, "If you're too old, what does that make me?" She said this with a smile, patted my back and walked on. It was not at all a hateful gesture but one to make me realize that we are never too old. I hope to finish college and some point. I had to take a break due to the money situation and the ability to pay for daycare, but I WILL be back... even if I'm 70 or 90 when I am finished.
