grand enough for this
So I read The Five People You Meet in Heaven and watched The Bucket List and I think it would be nice to be old. For starters, it means you've outlived disease and accidental death so far. Then there's the liberation from society's restraints, and somehow you are excused from having to live under public glare, self-imposed or not. Anyway, at such an age, you are either consumed by all the guilt, regret and anger built up through your years, or you are incredibly optimistic, having seen life, found an understanding and learned to flow with it. There is none of the hurry that young people are always in, no heady irrational energy. Finally, old couples really give us hope, don't they :) I want to be an old lady one day, happy and in love.I ' M S T I L L H E R E
