Never to Late

What does age have to do with anything? I hear all the time that I am to old or not old enough. What I would like to know is who is it that determines this? I understand that the legal ages of 18 and 21 are important, and feel these are mile stones. What happens after you turn 21? Is there an age to look forward to? As children we look forward to various ages and are taught to dread other ages. I recall when a good friend of mine had a crisis about turning 30. She had been taught that reaching this age meant it was down hill from there. After she went through her major breakdown she realized what she had been taught was a load of crap. She is now 45 and happy as ever.

An individual I met at a work function was telling me how she was to old to go back to school (she is 48). I told her that, that seemed weird as there is a 75 year old gentleman going to school with my husband.
Is it true that you are ever to old to go to school?

I was asked to perform a wedding ceremony this weekend for a dear friend of mine. I was completely thrown as it was for a couple who have been together for 32 years, but had decided that now was a good time as their dear friend was on his death bed and this was one of his greatest wishes. Can you believe that they have been together longer than most married people, but because a friend had asked they did it. I must say they certainly didn't have commitment issues or they wouldn't have been together this long. Their reasoning was that they "Hadn't gotten around to it." They said their "I do's" in a hospital room with their friend. Is it true that you are ever to old to get married?

My children keep telling me that they can not wait to be 10, 13, 16, 18 or big enough to ride all the rides (despite the fact that neither one of them will ride anything that goes up & down or in a circle). Are they expecting great things to happen once they reach the age or big enough? Absolutely, however they are learning that right now is enough also.

So my question to you is, is it ever to late to begin fulfilling a dream, a wish or a desire or look forward to turning 40, 43, 47, 55, 68, 72, 88 or 90?

Nope, Never.
