Sinking In

As I wake up and live this life I was given, it’s been Sinking In lately that I’m older, I’m aging, I don’t feel the same as my younger self, everything I think is different and everything I do, I do different. Is this the case for most people as they age? Do most people feel the same way? Why I am feeling like this? What has changed? That’s what is really Sinking In and it’s a little unsettling.

How did I get this old, I’m almost 60 and it’s crazy that I am even at the end of my fifty’s. Where does time go? Everything changes with each day. My body doesn’t function quite like it used to, although my mind sure thinks it does. I wake up each day and I am truly thanking God I’m alive, I’ve finally reached the Old Lady stage, being thankful for just about everything in my life not matter how big or small, I’m thankful.

When it’s starts to Sink In for you, accept it and own it. Be present in the age you are and keep pushing on. Stay strong, live life to the fullest. Those are words I read and it has put a new perspective on each day. Regrets are few and far between. Do I wish I could do more things in life? Yes most certainly I do. But life has thrown a few curveballs our way making it a little more difficult to acquire these things. It’s okay and I know the monetary limitation we have and have accepted it.

Although there is limitation, we still have that choice to make ourselves happy and live now. It’s not about the things or the money. It’s about the memories we choose to make happen. It’s about the love we radiate to our kids and grandkids and the love they will carry forever with them in there hearts. It’s about being present. It’s about LIVING and so far we accomplished so much and we are still here. We are ALIVE and PRESENT!!!
