The journey from this point to that which was so arduous before, does not hold appeal. My feet and bottom are too big to get on those shaky metal rods.
When did I outgrow myself?
How cool is it to not know the possibilities, the horizons that lie beyond your view and see yourself as a champion.
Life will strike soon enough. Nobody is born to be a kid forever.
Nobody is born to slide smoothly forever, without experiencing the mines and oceans, caves and forests, clouds and mountains.
Welcome them to take you to the intended destinations, maybe Death…

Welcome death, only it has an irritating side, striking the wrong person at the wrong time at the wrong age. Seldom it is the right time, the right age.

That’s Karma or Destiny fully plugged – no insights given into the cause.

I do like that line…When did I outgrow myself? My daughter is 30 and she has a favourite saying, ‘I’m not adulting today’… Just as Grononine said…we look forward to getting older and bigger when we are a kid…then we are there and the years go by so fast. Aging is an interesting journey indeed. Well told.

Life is a lot like a playground, and yes, death is one of the possible rides. Well-done, Reena.

On a planet far, far away; at a time long ago. This is great. I never thought I would be this old or take death so seriously. Very relatable. 🙂

I Agree with Rochelle. When did I outgrow myself? Waiting with such anticipation to be another year older has changed into enjoying each moment before the next one brings me closer to the end of this life. Thought-provoking.
