Maybe You'll Be Old Someday

Almost everyday, I see or hear the words:
I'm so old!
I don't want to be old!
Oh no, 30 (or 40 or 50....) that's so old!
Blah blah... such 'n such... OMG we are getting SO old!

Really? Old? Is that a bad thing because I'm praying for my next birthday and the next.... I don't know if I'll see 40 but I'm sure excited about the opportunity and the same goes for 50 and 60 and 70....

I know it's just an affectation. What is "old" anyway? A number? Not a single person, on earth, has met a creature or a being that is immune to aging. There's no insurance policy, clause, or contract that will prevent the inevitable.

You are guaranteed of only one thing: one day you will die.
If you're very lucky, you will get old.

New Year - New Adventure

Happy New Year!
As many of you know, there's a new Blog in the Blogosphere called, Hevria. We launched right before the beginning of the new Jewish Year and I currently have 3 essays published there. We are an eclectic group of writers from both the USA and Israel. Hevria is a combination of the words "Hevreh" and "Bria" in Hebrew, which mean "group of friends" and "creation".

We are a group devoted to spreading the idea of positive creation in a spiritual context. We want to make this world beautiful. And we want you to join us.
