Currents of Faith: Open and Unfolding Reflections

I just do not know how to “act my age.” I read an article in the newspaper recently which spoke of an elderly man, aged 75. “Yikes!” I thought, “Does this mean that I am supposed to be elderly, since I am months away from that age?” I just do not feel elderly! In fact, I do not seem much different than I did at age 40 or 50, except for tiring more quickly and no longer jogging. I was relieved to find another article which spoke of “real age.” This is the age which you calculate by using healthy behaviors. As Adrienne read those behaviors which add years to your life I fared quite well. Okay, I was saved from being an old codger by that new information. I don’t have much to guide on in my family since now I have lived fifteen years longer than my father.
