Transforming Years

1. When I was young I used to fear and worry about things, like growing old or illness and the sorrow that life brings. I was so afraid my youth and health would fly away, and be replaced by insecurity and ills one day. I did not anticipate my attitude would CHANGE, or that my thoughts would suddenly contently rearrange.

2. No longer as concerned about the things I liked before, I saw new channels and insights beyond an opened door. Things seemed more exciting and inviting once again. a newfound MYSTERY in life became a heartfelt friend. Things I once found so significant now quickly fled, and with a taste for fresher interests I was richly fed. Life seemed much too short to waste on worry and regret. Now I do not feel a need to reach life’s summit yet.

3. Little things impress me more as I grow older still. I desire the simplest pleasures that my heart will fill. Also I enjoy ANTICIPATING each new day, all the wonders and surprises life will send my way. My interests may have changed but I am happy as can be, for I have learned to not resist life’s gently flowing sea.

4. Now that in the autumn of my life I feel secure, I sense a tranquil comfort and I know one thing for sure. Life was meant for happiness enjoyment love and peace, the qualities we should pursue until our lives will cease. The answer to our fears is to    have trust when youth may flee. Realize a new HORIZON in its place will be. With fresh new hope you may proceed to live out all your days, in many new exciting wonderful fulfilling ways.

5. Every season in your life is meant to bring you joy. Each has  special gifts and talents for you to employ. Cherish every day at  morning and never forget, to live as if it were your last until the sun has set. In this way you’ll find your life as RICH as it can be, each day a steppingstone leading you to eternity!
