That reminds me of the recent TV commercial I saw. I read some of the articles you posted and it dawn to me the fear of growing old. I read somewhere and I quote "A paradox of old age is although we have less time to live, we have more time to spend. Freed from the time consumed by a full-time job, we now have time to spend with friends and family, hobbies, personal and spiritual growth, and volunteering. This stage of life can definitely become the most rewarding one." Good Day, Tita!<br />SimonVideo 48https://www.blogger.com/profile/00378994005562676112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800590664272013743.post-348404566753919042009-07-08T21:52:17.116+08:002009-07-08T21:52:17.116+08:00It's no so bad after all ma'am, You have f...It's no so bad after all ma'am, You have found blogging wherein age doesn't count.. <br /><br />I felt everything about your blog for my aging parents, my mother was just diagnosed with diabetes and I am away from her so far that I couldn't even remember her face and my retired father who was once a pillar of strength, a farmer by profession and a public servant in our community.
