Hello Mr. Journal
I thought I'd stop in to say
life is one big realization
and the real world gets its way
I swear to god I am getting old and it scares the shit out of me. I don't jump around as much as I used to. I can't "spring" to my feet. I move slower.
My parents hair is graying. It's getting to the time when you always hear about people getting cancer and just dying. They are old.
I always thought I was invincible in some way. Or I considered aging too far off for me to care. But now I think--if someone was born in 1990 they would be 17 now. And me being 17 doesn't seem that long ago.
