Ya CB! Wearing leathers and smoking a pipe!!
Do you think a lot of people are afraid of aging? I do. Our media makes such a big deal about looking young and paints a kind of negative picture of our elders, a lot of the time. I remember, years ago, I worked in a residence where there was a gymnasium and I peaked in and saw a whole bunch of people playing badminton. I looked at my peer and asked how old those people were and she said: "Well, Mrs. X is 82 and Mr. Y is 78, and Ms. Z is....let me see.....84 or 85, I think..."and so on. The whole team was over 75! They were flying around like a team of highschoolers!
Is it death that makes people fear/dislike the thoughts of aging?
Well I like your motto CB! It's way more fun than dreading the arrival at that door.
