Old age... I'm getting there.

Well "nothing last.." a saying that is often being used but often being misinterpreted. What's the true meaning?? Nobody really knows actually.  Different people will have different interpretation of that saying..  Unfortunately nothing is as the same as what we perceived it to be.

Celebration of certain occasions will have certain enjoyment and closeness to it.  Rekindling memories of those days when no one could comprehend their future.  I for one couldn't comprehend writing this at 3 am.. 
One thing that comes to mind was how old everyone are.  Even My wife is getting older and starting to complain of extra flesh that builds and stay without having any ticket to leave (don't tell her of this and hopefully she wouldn't read this).

Seeing how my nieces and nephews have grown and how old my siblings are brought me to realised that I was getting old and nothing I do could actually stop the time from passing too rapid.

How far have I've gone in my life?? No permanent scars or wounds but only the ones in my heart to show me that i have gone through it all before and now I have through one more which is old age.  It comes in phases and slowly in parts it takes my life away. Depressing??? Nope it's not as  depressing or bad as the word described but it sure feels like it...  Especially when you try to swing a golf club like Rory at my age.

No matter what wordings, sentences,  phrases,  quotations or speeches given to lift a person up and create an idea that he is as old as he thinks he is would not change the fact that age is catching up and the body could only put up with our desires to a certain degree than it breaks down.

Dreams at old age...  Non existence.  We had it but we didn't take it as what we should. Either way or whatever way we choose we will never know the implications of the path we didn't take. The only luxury we have is that we have enough experience to rationalise the choices we've made and justifies to ourselves.

I have never regretted  my life nor the path I took although at times my choices could have been better... Whatever I may get I would love to educate myself to live without any regrets and be satisfied with how it turns out although at times I do imagine myself as an emperor having 138 concubines but I am old and I am allowed to imagine for I have nothing else to do...
