Just a day in the life of…

Today I am 20556 days old.

Sounds weird huh? Well I feel old, I feel all the old age thingys that most of us senior citizens feel…

HEY WAIT A GOSH DARN MINUTE……

Not my grandmother, but a typical scene from the era.

OK so I am NOT that old yet, but I do feel like I’m getting older.. as do we all, the trick is NOT to think you are old before you actually are old.

If you feel like death warmed over, guess what.. you will be.
I often think of Both of my own Grandmothers they were told that at around 45 or so, they are elderly and needed to act their age. So they acted old At 45 and both My Grandmothers were white haired, had dentures, wore glasses, and sounded creaky.
At My age today, I do not have grey hair, glasses, dentures, or any of those problems.

I honestly believe they looked and acted old because they were TOLD they were old. A problem that was common back then.
But today, with better nutrition, health options, exercise choices, and general knowledge, we tend to be healthier and look younger. Not to mention live longer.

I refuse to be old.. there fore I am not.

Age is irrelevant. Maturity IS relevant. Don’t Try to be OLD. Be mature. with grace and decorum… then wear purple with polka-dots, glow in the dark yellow tennis shoes, with orange stripped tights, and a sparkly Tiara. Basically.. feel good, be happy and live life as best you can.
