Good afternoon.Wild and wooly day today. Most of you know of my age of 86.Well I do not look it or act it. Most people do not believe how old that I am. Do not dress like old.Not sure what old people wear. What do they want me to act like.Slump over or crawl. Yes,I am very lucky that I get around and do things. I do have my medical issues,but the buck does not stop there I have miss out of lot of things that old people get. Get on the airplane first and have a wheel chair waiting for me. Look,I am very stubborn .As long I can move and play tennis. the buck does not stop here. who said that? the photo is public.even Uncle Sam want me to grow up

Well, you know what they say, you are only as old as you feel!! And obviously you don't feel your age, and that is a very good thing.

I wish that was true. I think most old people still feel the same way they did at 20 on the inside, then they are surprised to find what's happened to the body they live in.

It's the fact to stay active and to refuse to look "old" that keeps you healthy and young looking Alfredo. Do not give up.

@amadeo Really? So what are you doing about been born again? JESUS has offered free salvation to secure eternity in Peace for all of mankind. Wouldn't you avail yourself to that? Especially now that there is time...?

That is wonderful. I have always believed that you are only as old as you feel. Age is merely a number. You look great.

For me, age is just a number. I am on my 30's but some people think I am just in my 20's. I do love to travel and I think it is one reason that makes me feel young. I do love to read and again, another reason to make me feel young. I hate thinking about problems or fears. I do want to enjoy life and live life to the fullest.I also love going to amusement parks and watch Disney movies too.

I found out over the weekend that the woman who delivers my books from the library is 80 years young. I never would have guessed. You do way more at your age than I do at almost 65. You're a wonderful role model!
