SPOTTED#1 :: the old are in a second childhood!!
The complete life, the perfect pattern, includes old age as well as youth and maturity. The beauty of the morning and the radiance of noon are good, but it would be a very silly person who drew the curtains and turned on the light in order to shut out the tranquillity of the evening. Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth (words from 'the summing up').
I've always taken aged ones as story tellers. They've, within them fountain of stories. I remember my grand-mum telling me stories of the days when my dad was a child and his mischievous ways around her. No matter what age you are, or what your circumstances might be, you are special, and you still have something unique to offer. Your life, because of who you are, has meaning. This picture, in particular, is just too awesome. I was strolling in the park with a friend and there she was holding specs on her hand and squinting her eyes to read the book. Age is truly just the number. If she has in her, this will to study and this sense of inquisitiveness, at this age; we might as well learn thing or two from her and try to retain our sense of wonder;)
Betty Friedan quote : Older, we must move, and stay, and move again, to keep our life-giving ties alive, for this movement is our fountain of age. And there's a freedom in realizing this, a new freedom to move or stay, new necessities and possibilities of choice.
SPOTTED#2 :: dirty stinky feet!!
SPOTTED#3 :: facebook and all the fun it brings along!!
OK. Here's the thing. I'd always loathed this burgeoning facebook applications (silly ones), and today somebody posts on my wall with the question "DO U THINK SHAILESH IS A TERRORIST : CLICK HERE TO UNLOCK THE ANSWER".. Hold it there, the one who posted it is my English teacher from secondary school. Taru ma'am;) Aww facebook you gave me lol moment of the day!! Ta'ru ma'am keep facebooking.
Next, one of my facebook friends shares a status which reads "Now am sure the world is not going to end in 2012 because even my toothpaste is dated to expire on 2013!!" lol. How refreshing and upbeat;)
