How old are you?

 

Age is a matter of perspective, is it not? The number does not matter, only the way we look at life. The old poem by an unknown author which follows puts it well into words.

 

Age is a quality of mind

If you left your dreams behind

If hope is cold

If you no longer look ahead

If your ambition’s fires are dead

Then you are old

 

But if from life you take the best

And if in life you keep the jest

If love you hold

No matter how the years go by

No matter how the birthdays fly

You are not old
