Thought for today:
"I used to think that 'getting old' was all about developing arthritis,losing one's hair and sexual drive, becoming less steady when climbing stairs, having a face wrapped in wrinkles and learning to exist on a much-reduced income, but it isn't. It is more about losing people that you love and no longer having your parents around to console you in your grief like they did when your husband never returned from the battle fields or your first child died at birth."
