I am not afraid to get old because that is the cycle of life ... everyone is going to die whether now or in the future so I see it as if you have time to worry about getting older then you have time to start making your dreams come true and live life to its fullest.

hi, you are 22 years and thinking that you are becoming older year by year that is correct and you have also expressed that you have not achieved, but think about me i am 57 years, in all these years i have also not achieved any of my disires, to whom i have to say these words about becoming old?

honestly... yes... it's because of the responsibilities that i am facing... i mean that i'm required to face... it bothers me a lot because a lot were already expecting too much for me but i feel so young to be doing stuffs that are meant for elder ones... :(

I work part time in a retirement home and it really gives you a sense of how aging affects different people. Some people get angry and depressed because they cannot do what they used to do, some people are sad because they have lived longer than their spouse, family, an friends, some are just starting to be forgetful and some are very forgetful. It makes me appreciate my life, as hard as it is, right now. I try to give them the patience and my time and an extra smile and hug whenever I can.
