I know it is just a fact of life, the second we are born we start aging (unless you are Benjamin Button) Anyway, now that I have reached the age I am... I don't want to get older. I am not afraid of dying cause I know that is also enevitable. I'd prefer to go in peace, but this is also not the subject of this post.
I can remember when I was 18 - 26 or even in my young 30's, I'd look at people (my age) and say OMG I don't want to be like that! Look at the clothes... something my grandmother would wear. Well guess what people... I am a grandmother now.
The thing is, now that I am "that age", I sure don't feel it. I don't feel much older than in my 40's I'd say. I think I act about that also. The thing is, my body is now starting to give me away... I didn't want wrinkly skin, or sagging.... well you know whats. I didn't want thinning hair and all those "age spots" yuck.
What happened to me, where did I go? I am still in here, in this body that will keep on aging and allow me to do less and less... and probably also remember less and less, which is okay with me as I don't want to know that I am sitting in some chair pissing my pants and drooling - God only knows where my mind would be!!
That is why I must live for today cause one day my body will stop even though I don't want it to. I will keep on keeping young at heart and even though I have become the grandma, I still can have a good time and feel young.
I will do my remaining things on my "bucket list" and even think of some new ones to put there. I can say now "yes, I deserve to do this or that".... cause I have earned that right!!
You don't want me parking in a hanicap parking space... too freakin' bad, I have the permit and I have earned that right also.
And.... well the clothes, now I do understand..... at my age, I don't care... comfort WILL come first!
Well thats it for today... Make the most of it okay cause tomorrow you will be 24 hours older~
And hell, I ain't old, I am just getting started!!!!
