The Pros of Ageing

Ageing has its cons that l know Yet it also comes with many pros Its a time of great joy and appreciation Life’s beauty and gifts hold boundless admiration Simple pleasures once just accepted Hold value and gratitude, not merely expected No longer do l care what is thought of me I know who l am and that makes me happy I don’t worry about the small stuff any more I know the importance in life that is for sure I know my flaws as l know my qualities For being me l make no apologies For me its simplicity now all the way Be kind, laugh lots, be myself…..because It’s all ok! So when the cons of ageing get you down Try your best to look around And see the pros there to be found!

This is a FAVE for me, Deb. I just love the positive attitude, the mellowing, the attention to the important and the shrugging off of all that is vanity and unimportant. Bravo! Here's to aging gracefully, but more important, gratefully! Happiness and Joy, Gershon
