Aging

 

Age before beauty.

~~~

Age does not determine who's right,

it only determines who's left!

~~~

Age is a matter of mind

and if you don't mind 

it don't matter !!

~~

Age is a number, old is in your head.

 

Age is a number, and mine is unlisted.

 

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

~~~

Age is like fine wine....

it gets better with time !!

~~~

Age isn't important unless you're cheese.

 

As you grow older, you stand for more and fall for less.

~~~

At my age...

I've got achy, breaky everything !!

~~~

At my age...

I've seen it all...I've heard it all...

I've done it all....

I just can't remember it all...

~~~

Beautiful young people are acts of nature, 

but beautiful old people

are works of art.

~~~

Better to have bad breath than no breath at all !!

 

Born in the USA.....a long time ago !!

~~~

By the time you reach middle age,

you've already met so many people

that every new acquaintance reminds

you of someone else.

~~~

Classic, Genuine, Antique Person...

They just don't make 'em like this anymore!!

~~~

Count your life by smiles, not tears.

Count your age by friends, not years.

~~~

Do not regret growing old....it is a privilege denied many...!

 

Don't let an old person crawl into your body !

 

Enjoy getting older, the alternative is death ~!~

 

Ever stop to think...And forget to start again?

 

Few people know how to be old.

 

50 is the age of discovery....you discover you're old!!!

~~~

50 year old--one owner

Needs parts, make offer

~~~

50 !!!!

That's dead in dog years !!

~~~

First, I was a good BOY,

Then, I became a nice KID,

I was then a great GUY,

Later, I grew up to be a fine MAN,

Now, I'm just an old FART !!

~~~

Forty is the old age of youth;

Fifty is the youth of old age.

    

 (Victor Hugo)

~~~

Forty isn't old...

IF you're a tree !!

~~~

Fifty is Nifty  !!!

Growing old is mandatory...

Growing up is optional !

~~~

How am I feeling?

I'm still on the right side of the grass.

 

( this was sent in by a visitor to this site who heard

this from a 60+ year old friend who had been ill )

~~~

I am not young enough to know everything !!!

~~~

I am old enough to sleep by myself

and young enough not to want to have to.

~~~

I have a photographic memory.

Unfortunately, it no longer offers

same day service.

~~~

I just let my mind wander, and it didn't come back...

 

I'd rather be over the hill than under it.

~~~

If life begins at 40....

What ended at 39 ???

~~~

I'm entering the "metallic years"...

silver in my hair, gold in my teeth

and lead in my bottom !!

~~~

I'm just a 16 year old girl,

locked in an old ladies body !

~~~

I'm not 40....

I'm 18 with 22 years of experience !

~~~

I'm not aging, I just need repotted.

 

I'm not aging....I'm marinating !!

 

I'm not as old as I used to be.

 

I'm not getting older, I'm getting bitter.

 

I'm not old....I'm a recycled teenager !!

 

I'm not old...I've just been young a very long time !!

 

I'm 39  1/2...(and that's my final answer !)

~~~

Inside every older person

is a young person

wondering what the hell happened !

~~~

It used to be wine, women and song...

now it's beer, the old lady and TV !!

~~~

It's easier to get older than it is to get wiser...

~~~

It's frustrating when you know all the answers, 

but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

~~~

I've got a good memory....but it's short !!

~~~

Middle age is when broadness of the mind 

and narrowness of the waist change places.

~~~

Middle age is when the kids leave one by one...

only to return...two by two!!

~~~

Middle age is when you choose your cereal 

for the fiber.....not the toy !!!

~~~

Middle age is when your narrow waist 

and broad mind begin changing places.

~~~

My mind wanders a lot but fortunately it's too weak to go very far.

 

Of all the things I've lost...I miss my mind the most !

~~~

Old Age and Treachery

Beat Youth and Vigor.

~~~

Old age comes at a bad time.

~~~

Old age is NOT for sissy's !!

    

 (Art Linkletter)

~~~

Once you're over the hill....you pick up speed !

~~~

Over 40 and still cookin'...!!

 

Over the Hill...pickin' up up speed !!

~~~

Please understand that no matter how old I get... 

I will always be a kid at heart...

~~~

Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it !!

~~~

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity to

forget the people I never liked anyway...

the good fortune to run into the ones that I do...

and the eyesight to tell the difference.

~~~

Sex after 60

is like shooting pool with a rope.

~~~

Some people, not matter how old they get, 

never lose their beauty...

they merely move it from their faces 

to their hearts.

~~~

   The best part about waking up 

is finding your teeth 

are still in the cup!

~~~

The hardest part of growing older

is remembering when you were young.

~~~

The heart is the real fountain of youth.

 

The heart that gives love....is always young !!

 

The older I get, the better I used to be.

 

The older I get, the better I was.

~~~

The surprising thing about young fools 

is how many survive to become old fools !

~~~

To be 70 years young is sometimes for more

cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old.

    

 (Oliver Wendell Holmes)

~~~

We are always the same age inside.

    

 (Gertrude Stein)

~~~

We do not stop laughing because we grow old;

we grow old because we stop laughing.

~~~

We don't have crow's feet....

We have laugh lines !!

~~~

We turn not older with years,

but newer every day.

(Emily Dickinson)

~~~

We're all getting older at the same rate of speed.

We just got started at different times.

When you stop to think, don't stay parked !!
