Aging Is Beautiful ~ {ENG/ESP} Envejecer es hermoso......
Age is beauty. When you advance, things begin to unfold, you then realize the things you think are important are useless.
Sometimes I get scared, I get scared to grow old, I've had the privilege to ask some old folks how it feels getting old and which do they prefer, getting old or staying young forever.
Envejecer es hermoso. Cuando avanzas, las cosas empiezan a revelarse, entonces te das cuenta de que las cosas que crees importantes no sirven para nada.A veces me da miedo, me da miedo envejecer, he tenido el privilegio de preguntar a algunos ancianos qué se siente al envejecer y qué prefieren, envejecer o permanecer jóvenes para siempre.
100% told me they will give anything to keep getting old rather than staying young, but trust me there are still some old folks out there that wish the opposite.
Am 27 years old and all I can think about is how it would feel getting to 37 and then 47 and then 57, honestly I still would prefer staying young. Well except I have a magical healing golden flower like the one in Rapunzel that can make me young forever then I guess there is no escaping aging is there? Now I realize why Mother Gothel hid Rapunzel for so many years just harnessing the power of the healing flower in Rapunzel hair to keep her from getting old.
El 100% me dijo que darían lo que fuera por seguir envejeciendo en lugar de seguir siendo jóvenes, pero créeme que todavía hay algunos viejos por ahí que desean lo contrario.Tengo 27 años y todo lo que puedo pensar es cómo me sentiría llegando a los 37 y luego a los 47 y luego a los 57, honestamente todavía preferiría seguir siendo joven. Bueno, excepto si tengo una flor mágica de oro curativa como la de Rapunzel que puede hacerme joven para siempre, entonces supongo que no hay forma de escapar del envejecimiento, ¿verdad? Ahora entiendo por qué la Madre Gothel escondió a Rapunzel durante tantos años aprovechando el poder de la flor curativa en el pelo de Rapunzel para evitar que envejeciera.
Here's the thing: “Growth is permanent”, I remembered having a discussion with my project supervisor back then in school about getting old. What captured my interest was his advice. He said lost over $5000 just playing casino and he never regretted any moves he made that day, now he was sounding ridiculous.
Ésta es la cuestión: "El crecimiento es permanente", recordé en una discusión con mi supervisor de proyectos en la escuela sobre envejecer. Lo que captó mi interés fue su consejo. Me dijo que había perdido más de 5.000 dólares jugando al casino y que nunca se había arrepentido de nada de lo que66 había hecho aquel día.
I asked him why he would do that, and he said “Life is all about having fun, doing what you love, what drives and motivates you, if losing millions on something you're passionate about then don't beat yourself much on it, if I've won doubled of that money that day then I'll still be a happy man so why not stay happy?. Enjoy the fun, learn from your moves and mistakes, mistakes are meant for you to do better not to be imprisoned, take your time exploring and don't rush in achieving things too early cause you might regret that later”
.Le pregunté por qué lo hacía, y me dijo: "La vida consiste en divertirse, hacer lo que te gusta, lo que te motiva, si pierdes millones en algo que te apasiona, no te martirices mucho por ello; si ese día hubiera ganado el doble de ese dinero, seguiría siendo un hombre feliz, así que ¿por qué no seguir siéndolo? Disfruta de la diversión, aprende de tus movimientos y errores, los errores son para que mejores, no para que te encierren, tómate tu tiempo explorando y no te precipites en conseguir cosas demasiado pronto porque podrías arrepentirte más tarde".
Boy…. that man said quite a lot that day that really sticks to my head. Well since we don't have a magic elixir, what precisely should we do to stay young?
Boy.... ese hombre dijo muchas cosas ese día que se me quedaron grabadas. Bueno, ya que no tenemos un elixir mágico, ¿qué debemos hacer precisamente para mantenernos jóvenes?
I've worked for a 80 years old man and I notice he never gets old and looks more like in his 40s every blessed day. I was curious. I wanted to know the secret behind his glow and so I asked him, he replied with just a sentence “Take good care of yourself.” This man always eats healthy natural food that goes well with his genotype, more fruits and vegetables, more water, and goes for exercise every morning to stay fit.
He trabajado para un hombre de A 80 años y noto que nunca envejece y cada bendito día parece más cuarentón. Me picó la curiosidad. Quería saber el secreto detrás de su resplandor y así se lo pregunté, me contestó con solo una frase "Cuídate mucho". Este hombre siempre come alimentos sanos y naturales que van bien con su genotipo, más frutas y verduras, más agua y hace ejercicio todas las mañanas para mantenerse en forma.
Now that's the answer: Staying healthy, eating good food, not getting down when life throws you off balance, be at peace with yourself. In doing so you'll keep aging while staying young and fresh.
Esa es la respuesta: Mantenerte sano, comer bien, no deprimirte cuando la vida te desequilibre, estar en paz contigo mismo. Así no envejecerás y te mantendrás joven y fresco.
Cheers!, your post is a lot of fun and I connected with it. I'm only 36, but I already feel some aches and pains that distinguish me from 10 years ago. What I have learned is that we have to age gracefully, we have to let go of bad habits and be friends with our body, only then can we continue to enjoy learning to live. I believe that when you reach my age you won't regret it, every stage of life is beautiful... Excellent post my friend, I wish you an excellent day!...
Thank you so much' getting your peace of mind without loosing your sanity is a very important aspect in life
Hi @fredaig!
Enjoy your moment, every age has its ups and downs, the good thing is to know how to have a good time, make the most of it, and live it with intention. That's what life is all about, being passionate and achieving our goals. You are a very beautiful woman at 27 years old, you should not be in a hurry to get older, you still have a lot to live, much to learn, and much to be grateful for. Don't be afraid.
Happy Holidays!
