Young Man I Was



Sometimes looking into my mirror while shaving, I want to know 'who' is that old man looking back at me..
Where has my youth gone? Just what the hell is a 'senior' citizen and when did I become one of them?
It seems like that only last year I could leap tall buildings in a single bound, but, now I need a step ladder to get over a short fence!
I am finding that I my bones 'creek', joints snap and pop and I have pains from things with names I can't even pronounce!

To make them selfs feel better, old people often say "with age comes wisdom". Don't believe that for a minute. I know people that at 20 they were idiots and now that they are 70 they are still idiots! Grin.

Enough of my whining about my age, so I'll get off my soap box, at least for now.. Your comments keep me blogging. © 2008
