Getting Old \"My Way\"
Some of you maybe a lot older than me so I thought I'd post this. Do you recall what that moment in your life was when it finally hit you that you really AREN'T getting any younger? I'm not just talking about health-related issues like for me, a creeking right knee, lower back-ache when it's cold and other subtle injuries from doing martial arts for so many years.
A month ago as I celebrated my 29th B-day and got lost on pondering where the heck am I on this ride called life, I heard Mr. Sinatra's theme over the radio and then I had an epiphany (or moment of enlightenment if you're Buddhist)--- the damn song finally made sense! Now I know what the fuss is all about over that damn song and why its a standard.
It's not just some other song to me now, feels like it goes deeper because maybe now I could finally identify with its "message"?! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif
