We Gain A Lot When We Become Older. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

We gain a lot when we become older.
tranquility,
serenity,
equanimity.
calmness,
the ability to enjoy,
patience,
wisdom and foresight.

When we were children
we wanted to become older
to join with the grown-ups.

Somehow we lose this sense as years go by.
Later we want to remain young always.

But being aged gives us a lot.
We find love and emotional security
in our own self and find the meaning of life.
