Inspiration from an elderly

As I was reading in the train, a lady knocked on to me with her haversack. When I looked up, a 72 years old elderly smiling at me. She looked really healthy and strong. She starts chatting with me and shares that she has been trekking since young and some of her trekking experiences.

When she wanted to carry her 15kg haversack, I asked her, "Can you manage?" "Young lady, this is nothing compared to my usual trekking haversack."

It is my first time meeting such a lively, energetic elderly, who is so passionate about her life. She's really an inspiration to all.
