Anne Graham Lotz recounted a conversation with her father, Billy Graham, on the subject of aging. \u201cAll my life, I\u2019ve been taught how to die,\u201d Billy told her, \u201cbut no one ever taught me how to grow old.\u201d<\/p>\n
She replied, \u201cWell, Daddy, you are now teaching all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lotz said she has already learned from her father: \u201cWhen you get older, secondary things, like politics, begin to fall away, and the primary things become primary again. For Daddy, the primary thing is, as Jesus said, to try to love God totally and to love our neighbor as ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n
