There’s a famous saying out there that says something like, “the trick in life is to grow up without growing old.” Everyone has ideas about getting older and trying to stay younger and we’re all probably wrong.
So many people have gotten old and practically everybody does the same thing(s). Growing old seems easy until you have to do it.
My take on old age and the changes that come with it has more to do with ambition and passion. Do you lose your passion and ambition as you get older, or does losing your passion and ambition cause you to get older?
Much in the same way, do you grow older and stop exercising, or do you stop exercising and grow much older?
It’s hard to be sure because I have grown old yet. Maybe someday I’ll have a good answer (or a good excuse) depending on how my life twists and turns.
