I'm a few weeks from one of my middle age birthdays, and I don't mind the gray hairs. I don't even mind too much the creaking joints, but I miss feeling young. I miss playing practical jokes. I miss posting ridiculous personals ads on yahoo.
I think somewhere I got too old to laugh.

Posted by: at January 19, 2006 5:29 AMIf you're too old to laugh, you're dead. Why not keep on playing those practical jokes? Why stop posting those ridiculous personal ads? Gray hair does not equal a lost sense of humor. I've got those gray hairs and creaking joints myself; I have issues with my back that keep me from being able to stand for more than 20 minutes before the pain puts me down...and I love life. Spending time with my grandchildren makes me feel rejuvenated. Know why? Because what you get out of life equals what you put into it.
It's just my opinion, but I believe that you are experiencing depression, not old age. See your doctor; get some exercise and take some vitamins, and reclaim your life! Good luck to you.
