On Aging...
One month from today I will turn 49 years old.
The number boggles my mind.I suppose 50 will blow it away completely.I'm not ashamed to admit that I am surprised that I've lived this long.I've had an on again, off again fear of death since I was a child. Which I attribute to almost losing my life at the tender age of 2. Now, however, I understand that death is not an ending - but a new beginning.
I believe we transition onto a higher plain and I'm ok with that.I'm working hard to maintain my mind, body and soul. I hope that I'm aging gracefully. Some days are better than others.I'm grateful to have had as much time as I've had. I've done and seen plenty in these 49 years...I often say, I've lived two lives..Looking forward to what the next 49 years have to offer......
Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over,
it became a butterfly.
