09/03/16 Weekend Grif.Net - More Thoughts on the Back Nine of Life
Robert Griffin
CONSIDER THESE THOUGHTS AS YOU AGE:
~Your kids are becoming you . . . but at least your grandchildren are perfect.
~Going out is good . . . but coming home is better.
~You forget names . . . but it's OK because most people forgot they even knew you.
~You realize you're never going to be really good at anything. Like golf.
~The things you used to care to do, you aren't as interested in anymore . . . but you really don't care that you aren't as interested.
~You sleep better on a lounge chair with the TV 'on' than in bed. It's called "pre-sleep".
~You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch.
~You tend to use more 4 letter words . . . like "what?" and "when?"
~You notice everything they sell in stores is "sleeveless".
~What used to be freckles are now liver spots.
~Everybody whispers.
~You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet . . . 2 of which you will never wear.
~Old is good in some things: Old songs, Old movies, and best of all, Old friends.
REMEMBER: Today is the oldest you’ve ever been, yet the youngest you will ever be. Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many.
