How often we're blinded by our judgment? How often did we miss a really good thing simply because we set a limit like the road-black we see on the road trying to stop thing from "trespassing"? We have always have so many (good) "reasons" and (perfect) "gut feeling" about saying "this not good" and "that not right" and end up shaking head or waving hand.
Worst still, we even have this very good capability/power to making things look a hell lot uglier in our head than itself could (or not) possibly be.
Oh yes, we think we know a lot. We can't be too far from being right either even if we don't know something. Just like the elderly likes to say to people, "I eat salt more than you eat rice" or "I walk bridge more than you walk road". (Whoa!) What is that they are trying to show? Well on one hand, yes, they are trying to give experienced advice - I've lived longer and seen more than you my experience could serve as a good lesson for you not to repeat the stupid mistake; but on the other, their head is filled with a stiff mind - listen, believe and follow what I say and you shall not be wrong.
Watch this first...

We can see a hall filled with people and faces that show a big scorn look to this 47-year old lady - she is here to make fool of herself as well as the audience and judges.
What is the damage can make to us if we simply refuse to allow ourselves to receive things without prejudice?
Look closely (the video) and think very carefully...
And another thing: Does age matter? If you have a heart, you're never too old to do anything!
