Age…
takes us places
leaving marks
here and there
Just like time
bearing lessons
we must learn
like
foolishness to wisdom
fear to courage
head down to head up
talking to listening
hasting to slowing down.
In due seasons,
Age they say teaches us more
beyond the appearance
Patience;
a virtue we hardly understand
at a young age
To live;
Something we rush through
in our mid age
Thankfulness;
for the years that have wiped
out many of our age.
“Let me age”
I say
So I can be like
the ones that have aged
taking my time
to unwrap each day as it comes
Passing on what this age
has taught me
one lesson at a time
to the young age.

What a wonderful way to embrace a time of life which will come to all of us!
Thank you my friend 🙏
YES.

Your words reflect the thoughts of my heart, and probably many others – how to live a life of getting to the season of appreciating all the blessings we may not have even noticed at their moment of happening. Growing in God’s grace, and realizing it, is one of our Father’s many blessings as we age. Thank you!
“Growing in God’s grace, and realizing it” is definitely one of the best part about Aging. Learning to see His Grace instead of complaining about the little things that don’t go our way.🙏
Beautiful, graceful words.
Thank you Barry.
I think that part of aging is a natural ability to be contemplative. I really appreciate so many things and never feel in a rush.
Next month I will be 32 and I must say, I notice a difference in the way I look at things. Credit goes to many mentor older and wiser women whose lead I continue to follow. When an older person speaks, I always know that I must listen and learn.
I’d much rather look at age from this perspective! Very good! ❤
Thank you sis. I believe with age comes many beautiful traits through lessons learned along the way 💞
“…unwrap each day as it comes…” – I try to do that. Aging is not too bad some days. Your words make it something special. Well done!
Thank you very much 🌹. I look at Aging as beauty; seasons of life curved in our skin and hearts. I pray that as years go by, my mind will grow along with my body. I admire older folks; they are definitely wiser in my experience.
It took 59.8 years of working on MY agenda…and failing every step of the way…then losing it all…before I realized what it is you relate here. Now, I’m putting it in ‘granny gear’ because I am where I was always meant to be and every day is another 24 hours to share what I have learned with others. Thank you, dear. Bless you and your family
