Getting Older

Let me see where do I begin this. It is not my favorite subject. It is about me getting older. I must be getting old because my children remind me of this fact quite often. When we are in the car listening to the radio and a great 80's song comes on my daughters will tell me....."oh yea that is a song from way back when you was young..."that is stuff they listened to in the old days"...... Now when did my "younger years" become the "old days"? Oh and my precious darlings are quick to inform me every time they see a gray hair in my head. Thank god for beauty salons! Every hair style I have had for the past 10 years...they have selected for me. And oh my gosh if they see a wrinkle....it is national headline news "mom has wrinkles"!!!! Since when is this a BIG deal? Oh, I can't forget to mention....I hear this great line....DAILY..... Mom ...YOU ARE NOT GOING TO WEAR THAT ARE YOU??? At which point they will select my outfit and jewelry for me. And the last classic one I will mention is...."if you was my age you would understand!" Well, I have news for them......many many years ago way back when.......well you get the idea.....I WAS THEIR AGE!! Yep, that's right.....hard to believe isn't it! While my kids think that I am over the hill I like to think of getting older this way........I am like fine wine.....I get better and wiser with age!

holding out an appeal-provocation that sparks a quest fr debunking the mystery of living thru our uniquely amazing inner n outer world, the two energies hving to battle wth one another!

An experience tht tks us up to the limits where we find moments as assailing as even though two different humans livin in one body - one wants all joy curiositis adventure life cn give.other is a slave to routine everyday claims of family n job.Just like two universes come colliding. if n whn not carried out (battle incessant)wth reverence one of the two(ugly one and the decent)could destroy the other.A fairly bright gem of a text.thnx fr sharing.

You are ambitious, which, within reasonable bounds, does good rather than harm. Live all you can - it’s a mistake not to. It doesn’t so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven’t had that, what have you had?

Haha! Very true indeed...For the children it's kind of a sweet revenge, cause when they were small, parents say, wear this or don't wear that!
