The one thing that haunts people after they are 25...
That one thing that becomes a nightmare for actors and models...
The theme of ALL 'Santoor soap' commercials...
The 'irreversible'...
That is AGING :)

We are ALWAYS aging no matter what age we are. And along with wrinkles, age brings with it a lot of other unwanted and unnecessary baggage. Haven't we noticed that as people start growing up, they become less spontaneous, less enthusiastic and the biggest of them being that they smile a lot less. I can notice the change that I am going through. Today I have many more insecurities in my head than what I had two years ago! And someone said that age brings wisdom with it! The more we experience in life, the more cautious we become...rather we become over-cautious. And that’s how we lose our spontaneity. As we grow up, we also begin relying on our intellect more than on a gut feeling. We tend to meticulously calculate everything before making the smallest of decisions.
Somehow we begin to need reasons for everything! "Why this?" "Why not that?" etc.
So, do we actually become more vulnerable with age? It is something to seriously think about.

"Age is a matter of the mind...so if you don’t mind, it does not matter!"

Good sen'sible explanation by ~sen~ !

Neway there is a statement by V Pu Kale .. "MaNasache vaY tyachya kesanchya rangavar avalambun nasate, tar tyachya Manavar avalambun asate " ..Guess u know marathi . still wud like to convert in english "the age of a person does not depend on the color of his hairs, but it depends on the color of his mind."

I am sure gonna remain "18" till I die!

your readers are so keen on your blog. They even find the time to comment so long and give their opinions.
that doesn't happen everywhere.I agree it's all in the mind.

now that I know I am ageing, I'd rather believe that :-)
