Aging

Aging is not for the faint of heart
smile lines bags and cellulite sags
Your butt begins to fall apart
As your mind matures wisdom hacks.

Oh girl 'you ain't just whistling Dixie!' hm... It occurs to me that you may not be old enough to get that reference. In which case, I concur! Lol, finally have a little time to peruse the Soup ;)
