THE TRUTH ABOUT AGE

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old. All you have to do is live long enough.".... Groucho Marx, 1890-1977, American Comedian

Aging takes no special talent, just hang out and it'll happen eventually. Agelessness is an art form, but simple aging is little more inspired than any other habit. Spirit age seems the real decider, because numbers upon paper say nothing about us worth hearing.

Be as young as you're able and no older than you must... that's my chosen plan of action, as well as very sound advice. Give to life only the price demanded and not even one wrinkle more. Trust me if you live long enough you'll have a fair share. Refuse to donate any face-space for wadding up when you can avoid it.

Remembering a few simple facts can cut down on the deep creases dug by any heartache. A broken heart mends much easier than a broken spirit. Chest wounds are inevitable, but a crushed soul only occurs if its master allows the pressure. Face facts. It is what it is. A wish will never change truth, no matter how pure its intention.

Make peace with reality. Know the difference between what is real and what is simply hoped for. When seen clearly it can be dealt with in the same fashion. The truth may cause a much deeper injury to the heart, but the soul will be safe. What is real from your point-of-view is your reality.

Each person sees from a different vantage point. Always place more trust in actions than in any words spoken. Deceitful facts can be easily hidden behind pretty lyrics we need to hear. Love may be unconditional, but trust needs proving. Never invest more faith in others than you spend upon yourself.

Life isn't always as it seems at first glance. What is visible to the masses often has little or nothing to do with our reality. Love isn't always as trouble free as it should be, or as equally balanced. Like the song say, "every point of refuge has its price.

And the price of paying too much is a face that shows the miles traveled in the lines traced there. Worry deposits more, yet gains nothing in return. Stress leaves its mark, as well. By taking a careful look at reality we can make decisions or adjustments that minimize the damage we suffer. Putting things into perspective creates better facial restoration than plastic surgery ever could. Keep your soul healthy and your face will age gracefully. Think about it... let it ride... then YOU decide!!!
