THOUGHTS ON GROWING OLD

Which is more beautiful?

When the sun comes up and everything is fresh and undisturbed - or when it goes down and a feeling of fuffilment,

serenity and accomplishment surrounds us?

January - Even the calendar year starts out cold and undeveloped, and comes one step closer to Spring.

In Spring it blossoms and is beautiful.

Summer is ripe and active, and overworked. It bares and withers into fall.

This is when, I think, nature climaxes it's seasons. It turns multitudes of color, is matured into true

ethereal beauty, for nature knows as we do, that age and knowledge helps us cope with falling leaves

and barren brances.

For God has provided us, if nothing else, a fresh beginning generation after generation. A new spring,

a new life conceived from only ourselves.

God give us strength throughout our lives.
