In the beginning there was a birth and from it came the next day. On that days cells split and growth occurred. It never stops it just goes on in the most wonderful way until the time when the heart stops its beat and the brain ends its dreams. All along we listen and see and feel the world around us and the space within. Our bodies and minds growing, adding each minute to all we have accumulated before. Learning from the past as well as the present so that the future holds a greater mind and intelligence than the day just past.
Ageing mean nothing then, if every minute is building and growing beyond what we imagined when we were young. Old age is a fallacy born of a society that has lost its grasp on the true wonder of knowledge that comes from life’s years and experiences alone.

How very profound, and, of course, quite true. Perhaps the ‘myth’ of old age is perpetuated by a society that fears the wisdom that age brings?
