Is “old” an age or an attitude?Yes, ecarg. Although I feel young in Spirit, I am happy in my aged wrinkles, and the joys that come with age because their are some! I have that time to stand and stare now, and drink in all of natures beauty---something you have no time for when you are working ,and raising families. I can look at all those poor folks standing at bus stops waiting to start a full days work,and pitying them knowing that they probably have another 40 years of toil. I feel grateful to have lived long enough to enjoy my retirement. I have seen some of my wishes come true. I wear my wrinkles with pride, and cannot see how people like Cher can really enjoy life--trying to look ,and act forty years younger than they are.Can they ever go home, and slump into a chair with battered slippers on their feet?ViewDate:

Is “old” an age or an attitude?OK. To the outside world, I'm old. I am 65. This Government of course have me believe that us oldies are taking up space on the planet. To me, I'm still fifteen inside. I might not be able to go out and play on the swings any more, but my memories of what it was like are with me still, and I can still feel myself beaming high, and jumping off,trying hard not to get hit by the swing ! I am still full of life inside, and if the wrinkles and greying hair say otherwise too bad. Sadly, Society has lost respect for it's elders. But just remember all you younsters,if you don't die first, you too will age.
