The youth has passed... but left engraved on them, the most sublime and romantic way of living.

Today they have a "baggage" of knowledge, experience, maturity and intelligence, which have accumulated over the years.The time took care to distinguish them from others: Letting their hair silver color smooth movements, the voice paused, but more sound. Today they are men who marked an era.

I've been fortunate to have some of them as online friends, even without seeing them in person, I realize these features through their words and gestures.

Many of them today, "dominate" with skill and dexterity these virtual machines, proving that neither the advancement of technology has changed their feelings, because these men still enchant with verses, rhymes, songs and words of love.Nor are they decreased the great capacity to love, feel and express their feelings. Many have become poets, others love poetry.

Robert Redford: Robert Redford: as said Oprah Winfrey: devastatingly beautiful…

Why the most important is not the old denounced in the details of their faces and yes the rare values of their personalities. The important thing is to realize that their hearts remain young ... Are older men, and that we , women of today, we have the privilege of being able to admire them...
