many were convinced that i would not make it to 25, 35, 45, 55, and most were convinced i would not make it to 65, however, just 30 days from now i will cross that threshold which some believe is a right to become opinionated, grumpy and pessimistic.
i refuse to believe things are worse today than they were in earlier years, i think that is a pipe dream and not reality.
i refuse to accept that growing old makes a person more willing to follow silly causes like tea party agendas.
i do believe life is tough at all stages and 65 will more difficult emotionally, mentally and physically.
i anticipate the future will have challenges, however, that is what maturity prepares us for, the future.
now, the key is pass the medicare physical for becoming a member; mine is 4/6, blood work is 4/1, so the prayer is a clean bill of health, other than loosing weight and getting more rest.
hard to believe that i have read 180 issues/15 years of AARP magazine and still haven't bought one of their services. :)
Who is Al Ballard, Canon City, CO; What is happening in my life? When will I re-enter the work force?
