I’m almost 50

I’m turning 50 later on in the month and everyone around me say’s I’ve been acting real strange. I wonder if sub-consciously it’s bother me that I’m turning 50 years old. I have thought about it a few times thinking that 2/3 of my life is over, assuming the average age of an american male is 75 or so.

I guess at some point we all realize that we have fewer days ahead of us than behind us. When I was in my late teens and early 20’s I was Invisible … now I’m just a mortal man. My hair has turned white, my bones and muscles ache more and more, and I eat things because they are good for me, not because I like them.

We’ll I’ve got a 1 1/2 year old daughter so I’ll still be kickin’ for awhile longer. I want to see all my kids up and married and doing well for themselves. lol But isn’t that all parents hopes!
