Well I have passed another birthday since my last blog; 59 now. Apart form the strange face that looks at me from the other side of the mirror I don't feel OLD as such. Aging is both an expanding and a contracting experience. Physically there is a shrinking both in capability and size but the wisdom is greater and its tend to improve output. In terms of attitude it seems one becomes both more tolerant and less tolerant at the same time more big hearted particularly towards younger people but suffering fools less gladly.
I think I prefer being older although I imagine I will find it more and more frustrating dragging my body around as I really get old, for now the balance is good.
