"I asked an elderly man once what it was like to be old and to know the majority of his life was behind him. He told me that he has been the same age his entire life. He said the voice inside of his head had never aged. He has always just been the same boy. His mother's son. He had always wondered when he would grow up and be an old man. He said he watched his body age and his faculties dull but the person he is inside never got tired. Never aged. Never changed.
Our spirits are eternal. Our souls are forever. The next time you encounter an elderly person, look at them and know they are still a child, just as you are still a child and children will always need love, attention and purpose."

I
feel the same way. I don´t spend a lot of time in front of the mirror
because I know that the man I see in front of me is not who I am. It´s
just that younger people have not discovered that yet. It´s a matter of
understanding the big things in life, the things that count, the
essentials, understanding that 1/2 of the answers lie in the questions.
It´s a matter of time and space that matter or for that matter. Words
have meaning and if we loose the primary meaning that has taken 1000s of
years to develop in the communication system with their association, we
end up in a confusing, chaotic situation similar to the one in Babel
which was initiated by God himself.
