Are you afraid of getting old?
« on: July 15, 2011, 12:56:45 pm »
Afraid of getting old?  I am, because there is yet so much that I haven't done with my life yet.  I don't want to get too old to fulfill my purpose.  Besides, I'm not financially prepared for retirement yet.

I am just not looking forward to wrinkles, saggy breast and boring weekends at home with 2 annoying kids and a husband. Other then that no.  :icon_rr:

Not at all. I'll be 40 next year, and am the happiest I've ever been in my life. You couldn't pay me enough money to go back to my 20s or early 30s!

No, I don't fear getting old or dying.  Getting old is a part of this earthly life's blessings, dying is apart of eternal life's blessing for me.
Have a wonderful day!

No, it's all part of the human life cycle.  We enter this earth and then we leave.   :peace:

I'd better not be 'cause it's creeping up on a dead run...lol  The big 70 is just a few months away but who cares...every day I see people a lot younger than me that look and act a lot older.  Age is what you make it.  My dad was a timber faller here in Oregon.  He was still doing that at 70.  Like they say......you gotta be tough to live in the west.  :wave: :wave:

I am not afraid of getting old, life is just filled with opportunities and its all part of the circle of life.
