Dirt

Gold's father is dirt, yet it regards itself as noble.

~ Yiddish Proverb

It is amazing how quickly time passes.  The earth keeps spinning.  Children grow up, adults grow old.  There is no stopping it, I don't think.  

I think it is about the 25th anniversary of "Field of Dreams."  I have been to the field and seen the house and ground and the dirt diamond.  I got a hit there - a double, I think - off an 8 year old pitcher.  

So "Field of Dreams" is 25.  I am more than 25.  I suppose that means that I am older than dirt.
