Thanks for visiting us "off site/on line".
Perhaps another birthday, fast approaching, has caused me to think about aging. Aging is an undefineable thing. Despite the date on your birth certificates, I know some people who were never really young, and others who never seem to be old. Where does the spirit of youth come from?
I think that spirit comes from "interests". People who have little or no interest in things outside their job are likely to become bored. Boredom is a major cause for a feeling of emptiness. What keeps a person really alive is interest.
Interests differ from person to person. We need not grow old in God's world of wonder, and in the world of human relationships.
Learn to be interested and stay young in spirit!
Cheers,
Richard

A PEARL OF VALUE:
To live all the days of our life
is to live fully with our whole being,
with heart and mind and spirit. It means
"to act justly, to love kindness and to
walk humbly with God."
(Micah 6:8)
