Changes in life

Changes in life is inevitable.  It happens all the time.  Either by choice or destiny.  

There are new changes in my life.  First, my age.  Now, 73.  My new profile picture shows some creases on my face and prominently on my neck.  Also, my hair changed to salt & pepper.  

Habits also changed as we age.  My sleep is now fragmented  I hate to admit it - I feel sleepy at 9:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.   So, I missed the television news and one telenovela.  Other times, I can't sleep at all.

My eating habit also changed.  Now, I get up at midnight to eat snack.  And, can't sleep anymore.

Before, I can't leave the house not dressed appropriately.  Now, I go to the market or supermarket in my house dress.  YOu know, working short and t-shirt and rubber slippers. 

But intellect have not changed.  I'm still sharp and quick to remember.  Because,  my reading habit has not changed at all.  In fact,  I have more time to read now.  

I have to close here with this:  Change is inevitable.  We accept change in our life or we rut.

    The poet takes the old age as a "boon" not 'bane'

  • sometimes we dont tend to change but experiences changes us... nice blog.

  • wonderful blog!

  • Great! Nice post.

    Yes, you can say that again. Sometimes the change can be so obvious. I'm glad you still have such a good memory while some of the elderly your age have already been suffering from Alzheimer's. 

  • Awesome Fe!!! I admire your sharp mind and agree that we become changed due to aging. Anyway, if we are strong enough to get on with, to admit that things aren't and won't be the same then we are wise enough, which I see in you. Thank you for posting this blog and keep on writing, if possible...
  • WOW! You look really amazing for such young age. I wish I would age gracefully too.
