Elder Cool Time

Autor John H. Green, John H. Green Ph. D.
en Limba Engleză Paperback
What is Elder Cool Time? You are Elder Cool if you decide it is time to teach others based on the wisdom of your aging process. Elder represents a purpose-evolving life experienced teacher, and cool is accepting the aging process with grace and dignity. Elder Cool is grace under challenge, and you decide it is time to live a quality life despite physical, social, financial, or emotional limitations with a sense of humor. You may never have a classroom, or realize you are a teacher as you go through life, but you teach by what you say or do, whether you choose to or not. Wisdom scripture, such as Ecclesiastes, Psalms, Proverbs, and the Sermon on the Mount, provide guidelines for becoming Elder Cool.
You might be Elder Cool if you know when it is time to turn in your driver's license. It might be time to turn in your driver's license if there is no drive- thru at the convenience store, but you made one.
It might be time to face and embrace your physical maladies if your head bedpost is propped up on a half dozen concrete blocks to deal with acid reflux.
It might be time to talk about the unmentionables: Finances, Funerals, and Flatulence. It might be time to plan your funeral if you get a panic attack when you hear, "What do you want on your Tombstone?" and realize later the family is ordering pizza.
It might be time to be sex wise if you have been dreaming every night about living in a nudist colony.
It might be time to dress smart if your pants legs are so short you could easily tread in two feet of water and not get them wet.
It might be time to have a faith check if you keep pinching the lady usher at worship.

Notă biografică

Dr. John H. Green is presently a fulltime teacher at St. Johns River Community College in St. Augustine, Florida. He teaches Speech Communications. Dr. Green received his Ph.D. from Florida State University in 1982. He was recommended to Who's Who Among America's Teachers in 2003-04 and 2004-05 by students from Jacksonville University, Jacksonville, Florida and the Community College. Dr. Green has spent the last forty years working in churches and schools. He also has a Master Degree of Divinity from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Green is the author of numerous newspaper and magazine articles. He is married to Brenda Kay Miller Green. Kay works with the local St. Augustine Council on Aging as Coordinator of Volunteers and Program Development.

Dr. Green says, "College students keep me thinking young and inspire me to keep on learning. Some people believe these students are America's future, but I think in terms of them as America's present as well. Deal with these minds in the present, and you will make the world safer for the future. I struggle to engage myself with the students in a way that teaches them to think 'outside the bun', and in so doing, creative minds will bring us a destiny of a hope that will never die. I teach that humor is a great source for loving to learn, that humility will help keep a balance on the perspective of life, and that serving humanity is the ultimate goal."
