Old age...
They say is a blessing
But still am yet to understand;
Do they mean 40-70yrs or is it what i think they mean, 80 and above.

I believe these count as 'THE' blessings of old age:
Feable & trembling voice..
Weak bones that u have to drag ur legs on the floor while walking..
Pains in the joints that u take different drugs & pain sprays all in vain..
Wrinkled skin and ugly face that sometimes u scare children..
Reluctant to take pictures because u dont want 2 see ur face, ur mirror always facing the wall..
Sitting indoors all the time b'cos u cant carry ur body again..
Getting frustrated b'cos there seems to be no cure to all those sickness..
4 ur info there is no cure!

Are these the blessings?
Or is this phrase 'OLD AGE IS A BLESSING' just a form of encouragement coined for people suffering from this sickness called old age..

Old age virus can be compared to HIV virus because, in both, U SUFFER FROM IT TILL U DIE!..

80yrs atmost is okay for me or then i might have to...
