Age Is Just A Number…12 reasons you should wait to get old.

Age is just a number they say. Ok, done. You may grow old in body but not in mind. Fine.Your body may ache, the mind may forget and you may be depressed…but age is just a number Ok, agreed.

There are benefits and drawbacks.

The Benefits.

You can get away with murder. No not literally,but there are many situations where many concessions are awarded to the senior citizens.

1. Train and plane tickets are cheaper.
2. You shall always be offered seats in a public place.
3. You can conveniently afford to forget birthdays,anniversaries ….blame it on senile dementia. So you can forget to give gifts.
4. Your birthdays will be celebrated with great pomp and show.
5. Dress up a little and post your picture on social media sites. You will surely receive more than 100 likes, leave aside the compliments.
6. Go for a morning walk,control your diabetes, and you will always be complimented on being so well maintained.
7. Write a blog and you will always be a successful blogger, for very few of your age manage to do it.
8. You shall receive innumerable gifts, as now you even have grandchildren.
9. You can relax and enjoy all family events secretly sipping your wine, as you are too old to do anything else.
10. Sleeping during the day is a luxury you can indulge in, as you have insomnia.
11. Can say no to sex anytime you are not in a mood…after all your age doesn’t allow it!
12. You can ogle at the younger lot without suspicion….maybe he /she reminds you of your granddaughter/grandson.(you can hug them too.)

So I think aching bones, wrinkles, dementia and insomnia are a very small price to pay for all the great benefits listed above.

What say!!!

HAPPY OLD AGE

Share Your World – 2014 Week 43

What is your favorite time of day?

What’s your favorite charitable cause and why?

How do you like to spend a rainy day?

When writing by hand do you prefer to use a pencil or pen?

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

My answers:

I love late nights when everybody is asleep and I can do my own thing. I love to be alone with my laptop, the TV on at mute and sipping on some warm milk.

My favorite charitable cause is feeding street dogs. More so now since I have lost my pet Lhasa Snowy.Dogs love selflessly and those warm eyes are so full of affection..

A rainy day is best spent at home with a hot cup of tea and some pakoras which are fried indian snacks.

I love to write with a nice ball point pen.

I am grateful for achieving the 100 follower mark last week.Looking forward to more writing in the coming weeks and a lot of interaction with my fellow bloggers.

Waiting.

Are all of you too busy elsewhere , because I am just staring at the laptop, waiting for you at WordPress.

Yeah…just published my 50th post!

Its exactly three months back that I requested my son to teach me how to write a blog. I did not even know how to start a blog at WordPress. Thanks to him and all of you I just published my 50th post on toweararainbow.wordpress.com. It may not be a big deal for many, but for me its an achievement of sorts.

Thank you all of you for giving me the inspiration to go on.

I am looking forward to 100 followers. Lets see when I can achieve that. Really want to write good , interesting articles that appeal to my lovely family in blogosphere. Its great to be appreciated.

LOVE YOU ALL AND THANKS AGAIN.

BE HAPPY ALWAYS
