It’s not always interesting when my teenager is talking to me about motorcycle fairings or my twenty-something tells me about a new Magic: The Gathering commander, but sometimes the things that are important to those we love are important to us because of the people we love. I suppose it feels like they’re speaking a different language I don’t really understand, whereas when I talk to my coworker, a retired fish biologist, and he tells me about the otoliths (hearing bones) of a buffalo fish and how we can count their age by looking at them, much like the rings of a tree… well, I guess I can follow that conversation a little more closely.
