The Perspective of Aging
There's your actual age... Nothing you can do about this.
Mental age... Your mind always tells you that you're younger.
Emotional age... Can you say mood swings!
Positive influenes... on good days... mood swings up.
Negative influences... Not so good days... mood swings fall.
The "not so good days" take an emotional toll.
When there are more bad days than good,
your emotional age suffers .
String together weeks of mostly bad days,
and your emotional age makes you feel much older.
Emotional "downs" ...
Health issues + winter blues + isolation + inactivity
Cold wet damp weather + who cares anyway?
Probably the biggest issues of aging.
Sometimes you don't care... About... Anything.
And you don't even care that you don't care.
Then that feeling passes... Until it comes back.
