Old Age Syndrome and 2nd set of Spirited Blogger Awards!!

Does the thought of getting old makes you nervous ? If you are in 10s (11-20) and going to 20s or if you are in 20s and going to 30s, does that scare you ? Does that make you sit back and think how life in new decade would be ? That’s what we call the Old Age Syndrome ?

Do you also feel that even if you are old by age, but you are still young by heart ? What do you prefer ? Being young by age or being young by heart i.e. the way you feel and think, the way you express ?

Share your bindaas views. They would lead to something worthwhile in next few posts on this blog.

I think both matters... ur age as u feel it and ur age as it is.

I am not scared of going old...only mom scares me dat if I get older, there will be no guy marrying me...ha ha ha.

Pri said...

mitch): yes i said but if aging were so valuable , why do people always say "oh if i were young again"..u never hear ppl say "i wish i were 65"
He smiled "you know what that reflects?unsatisfied lives..unfulfilled lives..lives that havent found meaning..
because if uve found mreaning in your life, u dont want to go back.you want to go forward.you want to see more.do more.u you cant wait until sixty-five"
---------------------------------

the above is an excerpt from 'tuesdays with morrie'...have just finished reading it and writing about it on my blog and the next thing i know is im getting a chance to quote it again :)

cheers!

Aneesh said...

Well, I don't have old age syndrome. However, I frequently look back and see the past days, that I've enjoyed. Life's pretty boring compared to that right now, but I'm more at peace now.
BTW, Thanks for dropping by my blog

Hey Aneesh, i wish u visit regularly here :)

i feel the age is the same as much u feel, what say ?

I'll try 2 be truthful said...

thank u would have never thought that some day some one would give me an award too :) i dedicate it too all the cool people who read my blog & commented however bad the post might've been.
now that my speech is over :P am not really afraid of old age , except of cancer having seen many people die of it & it is painful to say the least.
I actually want to reach my 30's as fast as i can :D

I'll try 2 be truthful said...

Gauri Mathur said...

The thought of being young to 'certain' point is always a matter of concern,once u get settled,u dont think much about being tat physically young.At that time young means to be young from Heart:)

And i myself have no issues with growing up everyday:),it makes me more wiser, more experienced and give me a chance of reaching to my dreams and fulfilling them everyday:):)
