The Old Man
Born 1949, M, from NLR /Arkansas, United StatesWatching the young man across the street, working out on his exercise and gym
equipment, the old man becomes introspective: He thinks of all the strengths
and powers that aging take away from us, but also, all the strengths and
knowledge it provides us with, in return!
The stengths and powers of the physical body begin to weaken and deteriorate,
in some cases, the brain begins to falter and sometimes fail!
Our reflexes are no longer as quick!
The old man watches the young man smile and admire himself in a large full
length mirror that is standing near by.
The old man watches and wonders if the young man is as deligent and as deeply
concerned about his mental fitness as well!
