You would think that the older you get, the more satisfied you would become with your past accomplishments. The fact is, I have resources in my life I have never used. I can still develop my spiritual and physical health to a level it has never reached. I am more aware than ever of the untapped capacities resident within me. I am still, in my seventies, discovering what I am capable of.
As we age, fitness inevitably diminishes. But we can all fight back. "Use it or lose it" applies not only to students of foreign languages. Today and tomorrow hold the opportunity to be better and become more.
I am no different from the 16-year old Dave.
No, I can't stay young.
But I can stay fresh.
