However now that I am officially a Senior Citizen and have gone beyond the average expected age, I feel that God be thanked for letting me come this far. Age does not bar me from learning and sharing my experience. Hope to do so till I get recalled by Creator.

I do try to keep abreast with what is going on and also interact with youngsters in order to give them suggestions, but only when they ask for. Society will always have something to say. Best is to listen but do what own conscience allows.

You also connect with this generation so well. <br />Age is just number for me.. but yeah the society keeps reminding us of our age isn't it? Now they tell me 'u r old enough for marriage' and 2 years later they'd tell me 'u r too old, u should have kids now'. That apart.. I like growing old because with each passing year, I find myself more confident, more mature, more beautiful and wiser :)<br /><br />Love<br />Shruti<br />pumplicious.blogspot.comShrutihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07500991110068526089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127390194074352877.post-17864138967410171042011-09-21T09:25:57.119-07:002011-09-21T09:25:57.119-07:00Purba,

Take care<br /><br /><br />NIYA : <br /><br />Welcome to my space. I agree with you that basically we are programmed to be selfish and at times cruel too. We do not seem to be caring for anyone or anything as long as our needs are met. The realisation of such acts comes only as we grow up in years as well as in mind. Hope to have your valuable views often.

One feels as old as is in mind. We do need to grow up with getting older. But gracefully without becoming pain for anyone. You do very wise thing by staying quiet when angry as one does lose sense of rightness that time. Silent treatment works wonders but at times one needs to tell other party politely and firmly that he or she is wrong. Take care<br /><br /><br />SAKSHI : <br /><br />Learning is a never ending process. We learn not only from elders but even youngsters, not only from those thought as wise ones but even from a uneducated worker. You have totally stumped me and I am at a loss of words to say anything. I will make best of my efforts to live upto your expectations.

Take care<br /><br /><br />HUMAIRA : <br /><br />Rightly said, growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional. One should not start behaving like an old foggy but share wisdom gained with understanding the need of others. I agree there are so many things we need to understand and if we can do what we want others to do to us, the life will become so pleasant. Take care<br /><br /><br />RITIKA : <br /><br />So I am. Two from daughter's side and one from son's side. We all have to leave the stage once our role is over but our effort should be that we leave something behind to be remembered with love.

You know ...Hey Belated Happy Birthday, Uncle Jack:)<br />You know I was surprised to see you speaking on aging. With your spirits you could challenge a teenager single-handedly. A player like you has many more centuries to make :)<br /><br />To your question, I'd say I generally avoid doing something which I don't like somebody else doing to me. One of those is, when somebody is angry they generally do not think before speaking and that can unknowingly hurt somebody.<br />When I'm angry I just shut up and let myself cool down, think sensibly and subtly send across my message and make the other person realize it. It's difficult to stay silent for that long sometimes but I try to manage...<br /><br />Anyway<br />~Cheers to you :)<br />*clink*Erratic Thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14852558150033296079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127390194074352877.post-7423746916988517152011-09-18T10:52:00.509-07:002011-09-18T10:52:00.509-07:00Dear Uncle Jack, Belated birthday wishes..

How would it feel to hear about you through many mouths something thats is absolutely ugly . <br /><br />so a very eloquent question yet again =) <br /><br />take care.Humaira Anwarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17571521447638784912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127390194074352877.post-28574579930445572522011-09-17T12:26:49.330-07:002011-09-17T12:26:49.330-07:00:-)

When we are young we do not realise the futility of doing something which we do not like to be done to us but as we grow understanding comes. What middle age, young lady? You are still in prime of life so enjoy it. Take care<br /><br /><br />HARMAN : <br /><br />It is not years which count but wisdom, so rightly said. And it is not number of years which make one wise but how one learns while growing up. And young lady you are still way behind. Enjoy life till years start showing physically.

Take care<br /><br /><br />CATGIRL : <br /><br />One is as old or young what one feels in mind. But as one grows up it may not be advisable to do something which does not fit in with the age in years, like I can not start jumping around when I have ice cream but I will have it as I like it. Why did you behave so mature at young age? Keep the child within you live and do enjoy life the way you wish to without bothering about what others may think. Take care<br /><br /><br />L 2 C :<br /><br />Thanks a lot. You made my day. True, age is relative. Even while getting on years one should keep in touch with what is going on in the new generation. I may not go around like them but I will definitely know what is what. However one does feel age physically, I can not run as fast as I could do few years ago. Take care<br /><br /><br />SURUCHI : <br /><br />Such wishes from a young niece have touched my heart. I owe you a treat when you come here next, with Seeya of course.
