We fear growing older because of the pains and aches and praying we could just go on breathing one more day:

Have you ever felt like you been falling apart all day long andlife was not the same as when you were in your twenties and thirty’s;

When you move and your body do not move the way it used to move.

I looked in the mirror and I think I saw a wrinkle. I had no recollection of every seeing a small wrinkle and now I see wrinkles on my face.

I look at pictures and think did I really look like that? Yes I was in my prime at one time.

I cannot imagine I even look like that at that age and wow did time fly.

At times people are so worried with looks we become pathetic human beings trying to look like the cover models on the magainzes.

There so many people who are bald and had a head full of hair.

Grey hair popping all over our heads as we age and age works right against us.

I turn forty three this year and lord know I think I felt my knee crack.

I told my friends I need to find new friend because all their illness are rubbing off on me.

I scared of turning into a feeble old person. I pray I am not like one of those eighty year old women who complain about everyone and everything.

I have to get my bearings and work on me each and every day.

I think growing older should not be the challenge and I think growing older should be a time of grace and beauty.

I do not tolerate any weakness in myself or my family members so when someone thing my body hurts I try my best to ignore the effects of getting older.  I try to tell young people to be full of energy get up and do something with their lives time does fly quickly.

In your young age we all have never ending energy in our social life and hardly in work.

But I think if we show never ending energy in work and social life then when we do grow old then it will be that we lived our life to the fullest.

I think we as people have a great imagination and think that growing older we will still look the same and feel the same and act the same as we did when we were in our twenties.
