Old , elder, eldest
Sep 24, '07 7:44 AMfor everyone
I have two girl friends. One is one year older than I and the other is one year younger than I. For those who don't feel distinction among 47, 46, 45, this blog entry is irrelevant. But that matters a lot especially to me.
A woman one year older than I is kinder, nicer, more dedicated, more self-restraint, more sacrificial. She took care of me more than I can expect her to do.
On the other hand, a woman one year younger than I is meaner, less dedicated, more selfish, more capricious, less sacrificial to me. She takes care of herself before she does something for my sake.
I love senior woman. We are all old and among older ones I choose oldest.
