About Growing Older.....

I received this today and I wish I'd said it first. This says so much....


About Growing Older


1st - Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

2nd - The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

3rd - Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

4th - When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.

5th - You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

6th - I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

7th - One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.

8th - One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.
9th - Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

10th - If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.

Very funny and very true. I think about Algebra often for that very reason. PLEASE don't ever make me go back!

Every one of those quotes hits right on. The older I get, the more any of that young stuff doesn't matter anymore.
