Whoa! Seven more days and a plus one will again add to my age.
Well, I actually don’t mind. I have no issues with my age.
Except that every time I look back I can’t help but somehow think of the things
I didn’t get to do. Those things I could have done for myself.
Other people view aging positively. They say as we all age, we
become much wiser and sharper. It comes with age, so it’s okay to grow old.
And age for some brings a certain level of confidence and
maturity because it means you have come across various challenges in life and
weathered it.

While for some people, aging means slowing down life’s phase
and activities, which means keeping things simple and steady. They say one
should focus only on a few things, one or two, those you want to keep as you
grow old in order not to complicate life.
Some people suggest there should be less adventure as you
grow old. But, what if it’s the other way around? What if in the process of
aging you begin to notice and see things differently from the time you were young
and carefree?
Age brings a lot of changes and opportunities. Unfortunately,
it sometimes prevents us from doing things we love most.
So why am I saying this? What’s the point? My point is
because we were born under different circumstances and we all have unfilled hopes
and dreams. Lucky for those who got to pursue the life they wanted for
themselves, while others failed to take their chance. Either by choice or by
accident, that one special chance has passed.

But we only live once, so how do we deal with “lost
opportunities?”
Since we cannot bring back time and fulfill the young dreams
we all once had, let us not lose the child in us. Manage your time well and
make sure that you have “alone time” at least once or twice a week. Then try to
slowly do those things that you were deprived of. Others may feel it is
nonsense, but that thing will surely make you smile and simply happy.
And as you keep doing that as the days, weeks and months
progress, you are also rebuilding yourself because you are letting that child that
was stuck inside of you for so long to once more come out of his or her shelf
to play and live that childhood love :D
