American actor Clint Eastwood, 95, recently delivered a heartfelt speech, saying, “Growing old can be pretty scary, right?”
Your bones don’t move as easily, your eyes feel weary from the light and your lungs often crave a break from that exhausting breath.
But what’s even scarier and more exhausting is reaching ninety and realizing there’s no one you love nearby. listening with a hint of disinterest to your tales filled with imagined heroics.
You know they may not care, but you still take joy, like a grandfather, in sharing what you think matters with your grandkids.
It’s frightening to be, living alone when everyone used to seek you out, and after a lifetime of chasing the light, you end up without a family, living in darkness when you really needed someone to guide you toward the light.
So, make it a priority to build a family. Chasing fame is like chasing ashes blown away by the wind; it neither ignites a fire nor stays put.” (Quora.com)
