TODAY IS THE YOUNGEST YOU ARE EVER GOING TO BE -11
TAKE HEART : EVEN AS YOU READ THIS : YOU ARE THE YOUNGEST YOU ARE EVER GOING TO BE ( IN THIS LIFETIME , FOR BOTH THE BELIEVERS AND NON BELIEVERS IN REBIRTH) FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS IN THIS WORLD , SO TAKE HEART AND MAKE THE BEST OF IT .
I remember very well , seeing older people through the years and thinking that these ellderly people were years away from me and that i was still at the first step of the multi storey apartment .
But here i am , knocking on the " SEVENTIES ". Many of my friends are also retired or almost getting there and barring a few who still have it in them to dye their hair , all others are all grey and most others do not even have to take this trouble as there is hardly any hair left to dye .
They move slower in measured steps . Some are in much better shape than me and some are worse off . Their age is beginning to tell and are no more the vibrant selves that we once were . With mobility restricted , TV on Cricket , Tennis , Football , Swimming or Cycling are watched with awe on the TV screen even as the eyesight is not as good or sharp as it once used to be .
But here it is . The " Late sixty plus " of my life catches me by surprise . How did i get here so fast and where did all the years of my youth go ?
Each day , getting a shower or the use of the toilet itself is an excercise in itself . Sleep or the lack of it finds a remedy in the dosage of the tablets taken to alleviate the same .
Yes , i do have regrets . There are many things which i wish i had done and the very many things i wish i had been smart enough to avoid . Life , alas gives no one a second chance .
So for all those , who are in your youth , let me remind you that you will also be here a lot faster than you ever think or imagine . Do whatever you want to do now and enjoy every minute of your life . Live for today , love and be loved by all your near and dear ones .
Old is gold , like old songs , old movies and best of all your OLD FRIENDS .
Stay Well " OLD FRIEND " It is not what you gather but what you scatter that will make you and others happy and which tells about the quality of life that you once led .
TODAY IS THE OLDEST YOU HAVE EVER BEEN , BUT TAKE HEART , AT THIS VERY MOMENT YOU ARE THE YOUNGEST YOU WILL EVER BE IN YOUR PRESENT LIFETIME ( NOT ALL BELIEVE IN REBIRTH AND KARMA ) . TOMORROW YOU ARE JUST ONE DAY OLDER .
SO ENJOY THIS DAY WHILE IT STILL LASTS .

True. How time flies! I think we are both fortunate to be in fairly good health in body and mind.
