*relearning Life's Lessons In Short Sentences

Rating: 3.0


i am too old to learn new tricks
yet too young to forget the old tricks
i am too old to care much about anything
yet i am too young to stop caring entirely
i am too old to become reckless
too young to play it safe
too old to be afraid of the future
too young not to be scared by today
too old to play ball
too young to be out of the game
I am an awkward age...

Well written. I have come to believe that, in large part, that age is a State of Mind. Vic Hood
