What do you look forward to most about getting older?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for December 05, 2008:

 Squeak...  Me?  Am I looking forward to getting older?     Ha!    One of the things I think I would enjoy when it comes to ‘old age and ageing' is probably to spend some of the ‘Time' I banked during my younger days to tell the world of the time I once ruled my world with the arrogance and sweetness of youth..............................................and yes, I can see myself dreaming each and every night of those good old days when I was once queen of it all........................................
Coldplay - Viva La Vida Lyrics


I know youth has shown me how to lose my way and I bet old age will reveal the way to find it so until that time when I have earned my way back, trust me, I'll be happy to rule the streets in youth or sweep the world in old age...or vice versa............

God! I love this world!  Oh Devil!  I hate this world too.... and that's the whole truth and nothing but the truth......I love this world as much as I hate it and I think I love ‘aging' as much as I am going to hate it...............

 Yikes!  I need to get this song out of my head........it's making me write crazy...stuff...!!!!!

Such a passionate way about us we held in our hearts back then, huh?
Only now it’s that and a whole lot more.

“V” and love into and forever into our light of outburst…and may it always send off fireworks of our remains.

being a cranky old geezer ain’t such a bad thing!lol of course, i speak for myself only. 
someone once said not to be too good or too bad, perhaps the middle way is not such a bad thing. i was once a court musician pauper thrown into the dungeons by the king…….both sides of the street can really suck at times………

great lyrics, awesome voice, beautiful melody…………

well, you’re a long way from getting old, my friend, but I have no doubt that you will age wondrously well, when the time comes!

Hugs for Andrew and Nic…you guys are sweeter than sugarcane juice on a parched day :)Thanks for the reassurance about the dreaded old age…I feel better already….



Thanks Nicole….I have a feeling we shall both age wondrously slow….and might even find the elixir to longevity before old age strikes…..ha ha……you never know…and ‘sides there’s always next lifetime…huh?


Lol, Andrew, I just know you’ll make a harmless old Geezer, all bark and no bite. Omg, I don’t mean that literally :-))

Hmm…I see this too……”both sides of the street can really suck at times…” whether we are a musician or a king…uh huh…agreed…happiness and sadness exist on every level…………and talking about musician, hey, I was thinking the same thing about your songs…..”Great lyrics, awesome voice, beautiful melody” and so much more…





Love u both
