So…when are we considered old? Not to our children, but to everyone else around us? My wife says it depends on the age of the people we hang around with. If that is the case, I should be good. Living in Bermuda I consider myself lucky and blessed to have some great friends….who range in age from their mid 20’s to 60. I guess age is just a number.
Today I turn 47. At least I think I do as I lost track after my 40th Birthday. I got married at 29, moved to Bermuda at 39…and now I am quickly approaching 49 (or that number after 49). Not sure what next big change in my life will be…but as long as I am alive to see it, that is all that matters.
Since bringing the Cancer Fundraiser, Relay For Life of Bermuda, to Bermuda…I have changed the way I look at my age. I have seen many people lose their lives too early. Leaving family and friends behind. Not doing the things that I am sure they had on their Bucket List or Life List. I am sure there were a ton of places that they wanted to see, before they passed on.
I am completely grateful and blessed to be another year older. I embrace it.
