How to feel young when you are getting old?
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was: ‘Good Morning Message #144‘.
Good morning Friends,
Everybody wants to look young, when getting old,
Some rely on work-outs, others colour their hair;
Many use face lifts and remedies that are untold,
Some even think of means that are rather unfair.
Colourful shirts and pants are part of the game,
Some even use phrases that’re in with the boys.
Then there are those whom I’ve often heard claim,
That thinking like you’re young brings one real joys.
You can try out many methods above and more,
And still feel that youth is actually slipping away.
So I shall give you a method you can explore,
If you see merit in it you can even start today.
To rejuvenate yourself take up a hobby that is new,
Writing, music or poetry which you couldn’t do before,
It should be something that you’ve set your heart to,
And not something that becomes yet another chore.
Gradually, raise your level from novice to expert,
Discuss with people who have the same passion;
You would see that you don’t even have to exert,
What keeps you young would be this obsession.
Gradually, you would have an interest in life,
Exactly how you had when you were still young,
You’d feel free of stress, you’d be rid of strife,
Joie de vivre your own way you would have swung.
Begin a new hobby, begin life anew.
