How old do you feel on the inside?
Still pondering this age thing.. A very dear friend said to me today "You sure don't look 70." Now I've learned a few things over the years and one of them is to never ask the next logical question "How old do you think I look." I don't want to know. I'll just take her comment as a compliment. But then she asked an interesting question "How old do you feel on the inside?" After a little thought I said that I feel like I'm in my 40's. I remember a conversation with my father one Christmas day when I was in my 50's and he was in his 80's. I said to him, as I was busy getting the dinner on the table, that sometimes, even though I'm all grown up on the outside, I feel like a little kid playing at cooking dinner. He laughed and said "You know, some times so do I." Isn't that great? I plan to stay as young as I can as long as I can on the inside, and in the meantime I will avoid mirrors.
