 |

Take note, ye pirates. The days go by so fast, we're allready sitting at February 13 - two more months until mid april and the weather breaks
You'll be a sad buccaneer when you're old and grey, even for those that lived it up.
The days go by too fast, take note. I am officially in my mid 40s next month
I know some of our corsairs are older than me, just to prove my point better. Aging is something i wouldnt wish on anybody!! |

Yes, our body is certainly declining slowly and surely.
But i'm pretty sure you're not the same as you were 20 in you mind too.
You got experience and won't make youth stupidities again. You can make older age's ones. 
Your life's choices can be more accurated and better correspond to who you are now.
Time ago, i could resolve some problems by force. Today i'm learning how to solve them in a more gentle way. It is stimulating because we can learn and become better. And life give us this ability for free! We just have to train a little.
Okay, sometimes it can be hard. I falled. Was the same when i learned how to stand on my two legs. We never stop to try to do better.
Ireally think fragilities can become potentialities.
Two sentences which help me sometimes:

What's the secret of success?
Right decisions.
How do you make right decisions?
Experience.
How do you get experience?
Wrong decisions.

Very good!
Didn't know this one.
But like westerns and war movies with J. W.
And yeah, with some years on Earth, looking back can show us that life's experience can't really be right or wrong. It is. Just here and now. Yesterday will never come again, tomorrow doesn't exist. |
