If there is anything we can all count on it is the simple fact we are going to get older. This is not something we can postpone or a situation we try to deal with when we are mentally ready. Getting older is inevitable and permanent until our life's end. Fighting this process will only accelerate it's effects through stress, worry, and the tiresome search for a means to slow it down. Embracing our age will not stop it from happening but it will allow us to savor the moment we've arrived, in many cases, against all odds.
We all have a good reason to enjoy this moment in our lives. Aging is not only a physical process, but mental one as well. It's a time to reflect on how we got here and also a time to project where we are going. If we dwell on what we once were able to achieve when we were younger may have a negative effect on our aspirations for the future. The day we say we are too old to participate in anything is the day we might as well succumb to our nonexistence.
Embracing our age is a state of mind. If you have not done so already, it may take some time for you to feel its beneficial effects. To believe we are without limits is one of the most immediate and motivating reasons to be in this state of mind.
