Words of Wisdom - AGING - 7/4

Wecome to our new Words of Wisdom Series... AGING!!!!

QUOTE:
"The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune."
~English Proverb

INSPIRATION:
Why is it that we fear aging so much? My mother when she would complain about her aches and pains would routinely say “Don’t grow old” and my response is “well then I have to die young” at which time she would get upset and tell me “don’t say that” and my response would be there are only two choices. It isn’t growing old that is bad but the fears that come with it. The fear of dying, the fear of getting sick, and the fear that you can’t do the things you want to do, the fear that someone will have to care for you and the list goes on.

ACTION:
What is your fear in aging? Are you excited about this new time in your life? Take some time today and list out what it is you fear. Then write down next to each area is there something you can do today to change that. Then take one item on your list and make it a part of your life today.
