Marriage is a good thing
 By all means, marry. If you get a good wife (Husband), you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

or a killer.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Yeah but a step is a step toward the goal; not necessary to reach perfection to take advantage of life.

Hi Gerard hi everyone
The problem with discussing ideas is that at the same time you must pay attention to where you put your feet while you walk

Thank you for that Gérard, we will all remember.

  If you’re old I assume you know it, if you feel young, you are young.

Hi Muriel,

I easily forget my age.
I am in a very good shape and in my IRL (meaning In Real Life) activities as well as on the Internet forums or Social Networks, I'm with persons of all the age range and I never think about age.
Even with my granddaughter, I can be crazy enough to behave like her (except security areas).

Hi Gérard
I also believe in mixing up all age groups and backgrounds. will we be young for ever ? It's up to us to decide.

Hi Muriel,

As you know, languages evolve.

I began to learn British English (very long ago - I learned British English from the age of 10 till 53 then American English).
Decades ago, they taught we had to say: "I shall, you will, he will, we shall, you will, they will" (affirmative form).
Then, they taught to use "will" for all of the persons in the affirmative form.
Around 2000, a Brit taught me that at the interrogative form, we had to say "Shall we..." and not "Will we...".

I tend to forget about British English to move to American but some automatisms stay though sometimes I realize Britich E. moves toward American E.
I don't know what a Brits would say but I startled reading your sentence
