Essay/Aging: ‘Old’ is Not a Dirty Word by Mark Tulin
I’m happy you made peace with getting older. I don’t think I ever will and this will never be the person I should have been, it’s just someone time left me with.
I hear that. I wish you much peace.
Thank you. I even got a degree in Gerontology, trying to understand aging and it was just awful. Sigh.
I’m really thankful for aging, this time of my life is filled with clarity I never had. The physical side effects – not so much! lol But as you say – Old is definitely not a dirty word!
