Feeling your age

Mark Knoppler in Pastel

One of the things that no one really tells you about aging is that you have to endure the slow destruction of your body in front of your eyes.  Of course many people resort to plastic surgery to try and arrest this never ending battle with gravity but in truth they rarely succeed.  In the end we all age, some better than others, but it happens and suddenly we look into the mirror and there is this strange older face looking back.  Where the hell did he come from?   Of course we all know the answer and we also know the ultimate answer to this problem which is also looking back at us in the mirror but we don’t really want to dwell on that either.
