Growing Old together
Lisa (my wife) and I often had the thought, during our early marriage and dating years, that it would be great growing old together.
What we did not know is that what we really meant was that we just wanted to be together for always.
The Rolling Stones were right when they said "What a drag it is getting old". We really had no idea of what our bodies would do to us when we grew old.
What's really screwy is that your mind doesn't seem to change - it's just that your body falls apart around you and you can't do anything about it, mostly.
For that, growing old sucks. :)
