If we could but live to be one hundred and ten we might begin to understand what we need to know about how to live this one wild and precious life we've been given.
When you are young all you know is what your raging hormones tell you and then you wind up married and pregnant with Lord who knows how many babies.
And then you are too busy for hormones or life either one.
and then you are old and too tired.
We should live longer and to be stronger so we might enjoy the wisdom we have so wisely earned. So, we could run and play and dance with the wind, lay in the grass and feel the sun on our skin, have wild and (thank goodness) unproductive sex.
Someone somewhere got it all wrong, we shouldn't grow old and feeble, we should grow stronger and stronger.

I agree completely! We should age the opposite way. Then, by the time we were wise we'd be about 20. The perfect age for living wild and free. :)
On the other hand, I know some pretty wild and free 70 year old I wouldn't mind following after.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
