Aging
As 60 years of age approaches, I am thinking the difference it makes in my life, is that I am now measuring my life by what I have left rather than by how many years and accomplishments have passed.
I don’t think 50 had the same feel. 50 felt more like middle age. Years to go before I succomb to Old age. But, 60 really makes you think. Not about how many years there are since you were married or had your kids or started your job or all the things that make a life. Now it is; how many healthy years do I have left. What will the end of this life be like. My death becomes more of a reality.
If there is something you want to do, it is time to do it! It is time to really appreciate your partner and all the shared years you have together. One of you might be missing from your union either physically or mentally in a very few years.
Those faraway dreams you have had all your life..... well it is time to either give them up or pursue them with purpose.
