Some Thoughts on Aging

   I came across this little poem that expresses how I feel about aging.

We have all been aging
since the day we were born.

Who decided
 that at a certain age
we are suddenly 
"over the hill"?

I am only as old as I feel 
and I feel "on top of the hill.
"I can look backand
appreciate the climb
and I look forward with trust
 to the rest of the journey.

Reflecting on Growing Older
