I've heard that phrase used several times, but what exactly does it mean? Does it mean that you've accepted the idea of being old? That you've decided not to make a fuss? That you're too nice to put up a fight, so you've quietly realized that the world can and will go on without you?
Well this is what I know.
Old is experienced, informed, and important. Old knows the stories. It knows the recipes. It remembers the past.
Old. I'm not there yet, but I'm on my way. And I've never been called graceful.
And that's okay with me.
