The other day a young person asked me how I felt about being old.
I was taken aback, for I do not think of myself as old. Upon
seeing my reaction, she was immediately embarrassed, but I
explained that it was an interesting question, and I would ponder
it, and let her know.

Old Age, I decided…is a gift. I am now, probably for the first
time in my life, the person I have always wanted to be. Oh, not my
body! I sometime despair over my body, the wrinkles, the baggy
eyes, and the sagging butt.
